Recommendation for Scope Mounts for Hawke Vantage IR 4-12X50 AO for HW100

[SteveinHNL]

Hi good morning.

I have ordered this scope for my HW100, and am wondering what BKL scope mount might fit. Since it is a 50mm scope, I think I need high rings but I don’t know how high. I believe I need rings that fit an 11mm dovetail rail.

Here is the scope and specs: https://us.hawkeoptics.com/vantage-ir-4-12x50-ao-mil-dot-ir.html

Here is a 1 piece BKL mount I found, but not sure if it will provide sufficient clearance? https://www.amazon.com/BKL-Mount-Do...&sprefix=bkl+scope+mounts+50mm,aps,731&sr=8-1

I would greatly appreciate any input or suggestions. Thanks so much!

Your scope's objective lens is 2.5" diameter which is 1.25"+ for the rings. Hawke tactical extra high rings will give you 1.4" height for your scope.

Hawke 2 piece tactical medium rings mounting a Hawke 44 mm scope on my HW95L. Leaves about 1/8" objective lens clearance.

I would suggest that you get this scope with the medium rings for your HW100 and if you ordered from Hawke or some place like Optics planet they may let you change/exchange your order. https://us.hawkeoptics.com/airmax-30-sf-compact-3-12x40-amx-ir.html
