I find that the factory bases and low 1" rings are still on the tall side for a good cheek weld.

Can you recommend something lower? Perhaps EAW or some such? Hopefully still QD but I would carry an Allen key or screwdriver if I had to.

What's the lowest you can get in any diameter?

I believe the Blaser Scope/rail mount will be the lowest option. I myself use the detachable low profile 30mm with Leupold VX-6HD on all my Blaser set ups and have had no problems.

What's the objective diameter of your scope?
I once procured for a hunting buddy two Blaser mounts, one original, one aftermarket, 1 inch tube scope with 42 diameter.
The original was a bit lower.
For me, his stock with that mount was still a little too high and uncomfortable.
An added cheek cushion on the stock might help you, and it's much cheaper that anything else
Internal rail scopes tend sometimes to sit slightly lower.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
