Thanks for posting the pictures. Much appreciated!

How do you like the one piece CZ mounts? Both sets look like real nice options.

One question I always pose with mounts like these is..."how far do they hang over the magazine well?"

Spent case ejection doesn't concern me but never having had scope mounts similar to these I wonder if they could slow you down when trying for a very fast reload...? Maybe a non issue just a question I have always had...

Thanks again,
Dave

Ironically, the mounts are not currently on the CZ 416Rigby, but they hold my backup scope, a Nikon 1.65-5 power, while the rifle has the Nikon Monarch 2-8 power in standard 2-piece mounts, since the Monarach is long enough for that action. And I'm currently out of the country, not able to visibly reassess.

What I would like is a scope/ring/height comparison. I see that Alaskan arms makes medium not high and am wondering it that will clear a z61 swaro?

Same but I use an Aimpoint or Trijacon 1.25-4X24. This is not a straight tubed scope but fits....just.
