Hawke 2 Piece Weaver Tactical Match Mounts - Extra High
Q1: What size scope objective will fit without touching the rifle?
With a 36 mm base-to-centre height, these rings can accommodate scopes whose outer objective bell radius is under 36 mm.
Example:
-
A 70 mm objective bell = 35 mm radius → ✅ fits with 1 mm clearance
-
A 72 mm bell = 36 mm radius → ❌ just touches – not recommended unless rail is raised
Measure the outer casing, not just the lens. AO (Adjustable Objective) scopes often have much larger objective housings.
Q2: Are these rings for dovetail rails?
No. These are for Weaver or Picatinny rails only (standard 20 mm width).
They will not fit 9–11 mm or 13mm dovetail rails, which are narrower and use a different clamping design. For use on dovetail and adapter is required.
Q3: How tight should the top screws be?
Maximum torque for the top ring screws is 18 lbs/ft (≈2.5 Nm).
Over-tightening beyond this can damage the scope tube and affect zero. Use even pressure and a torque driver if available.
Q4: Is this height too much for standard scopes?
These are extra-high, and designed specifically to give room for larger objective bells or rifles with features like fluted barrels or oversized rails. For slim scopes, a lower mount might give better cheek weld and balance.
Q5: Suitable for airguns and rimfires?
Absolutely—many airguns and rimfire rifles use Weaver/Picatinny rails, and these rings are strong enough to handle even high-recoil springers.
