    Before I hemorrhage money and get the wrong Spuhr mount and have to play the return game and get another one does anyone have any insight on which Spuhr mount is the best option?

    The options are:

    SP-5001 (1.181") or SP-5006 (1.35") or SP-5002 (1.5")

    It's going on a Zermatt TL3 with a 20 MOA base with an M24 contour barrel in a KRG Whiskey-3

    I appreciate the information.

    I run a 1.125 " mpa mount with my bighorn heavy Palma. Bolt handle and scope objective clear . I think a 1.250 would be better though more room to cycle bolt handle. Hope this helps

    I appreciate it. I didn't see a 1.250 option on Mile High's website, but I'll go back and take a look because I could have completely missed it.

    Here’s how much room I had on mine with a medium Palma barrel. 5001 with plenty of room. Plenty of room for bolt cycling as well.
    @Rob01 has more experience using m24 contours and lower rings but I don’t know if he’s ran a mk5 or 35mm tube either. He might chime in here to help.

    Thanks for the picture and wisdom.

    I currently use either medium or high (cannot remember) Seekins rings on a 30mm tube. I know when going to that 56mm and 35mm tube things are way different
