I just bought a Ruger american predator rifle in 308.I am planning on getting a suppressor for it. The can will be approx. 2 inch diameter. I have a nikon prostaff 1 in. tube 3x9 by 40 mm. BDC scope that i plan to use on the rifle. I am leaning towards buying a set of burris zee rings for it.They are machined from a single piece of steel so they should be very strong and sell for less than 30.00. I am not sure if i should go with low, medium, or high rings.When i lay a 4 foot straightedge on the factory installed picatinney scope base it shows that the scope base is about 1/4 lower than where the top edge of the can will be. I like to mount my scope as low to the bore as possible.If the top 1/2 to 3/4 of my can is higher than the bottom edge of my scope will it be visible to me in the scope?I want to set the gun up so the scope will be as low as possible if i am not using the can and at the same time high enough that i can see over the can if i am using it on the gun. Has anyone done this before. THANKS.
