After doing a lot of research on rifles and scopes I've just purchased my first rifle. I decided to go with a Ruger American in a 308 win and I went with a Nikon prostaff nikoplex scope 3-9 x 50. I'm going to take it to a local gunsmith to have it mounted. I would rather purchase the mounting rings myself because I know the gun shop has the expensive type. So my question to you all is with my scope being 50 and larger on the end should I get regular 1 inch rings or higher rings to lift the scope off the gun? Keep in mind I'm a smaller female and I don't want to have to strain to shoot with my cheek not able to rest on the stock.
