Ruger No 1 Scope options

[WAB]

I put a Leupold M-8 fixed 6x on mine. I really like having the extended ring. It allowed me to move the scope back just enough so that it’s perfect, especially when wearing fall/winter clothing.

That scope position looks perfect!

All of my #1s have Leupold scores utilizing Ruger scope rings.

Bringing this old thread back up. I have a recently acquired Ruger no 1 in .375hh and looking at the Ruger rings. Any reason not to use them?

If they work use them. I ended up having to get the extension rings for the 2.5-8 I used. Front and rear. If you need different heights than what you have let me know. I have plenty of Ruger rings I do not have mounted now.

Ruger rings sometimes will scratch your scope quicker than leupold rings will. They have sharp edges. Check them and touch up as needed

Thanks. Looking at a 2-10x 42 mm Leupold VX5 at the moment

Currently running a Leupold freedom scout on my 30-06, a Trijicon accupoint on my 458, and a vortex 4-12 on my 7x57

When I switched to 30mm rings on any of my Rugers, I purchased leupolds. I did recently pick up some Alaskan Arms rings, and they are the nicest rings I’ve ever used, but I got a a crazy great deal on them. I do not know your budget, so leupolds work great for the money, but Alaskan arms if you really want to deck it out.

So far mine have been fine.

I really like the Alaskan Arms detachable rings. A bit more exspensive but worth every penny. I have a set on my Ruger #1s in 375H&H and my 9.3x74r. Would not change a thing. You actually talk to the owner when you call thier phone number.
