Yup they do, but like many I need scopes too.

3x9x50 Nikon had to use Weaver high rings. Love it. 243. Dead on at 100yrds. Saw plenty of deer the first half of Nov but none the last 4 times I got scope on LR. They know what's coming....

I also firmly believe the older ones know the day the season starts and the day it ends

I recently updated from a vx-3i 3.5-10x40 with a 1" tube to a vx-5hd 3-15x44 with a 30 mm tube.

I couldnt find anything that would say if low rings would work.

Good news is using the base that came with the henry and warne 513m low rings there is plenty of clearance.

I have pictures but i am struggling to get them connected

Using png worked rather than jpg.
