    extended/extension rings dimensions

    Help Please! ! I need extended rings to adjust scope forward about 0.75". Weaver, Hawke, and others manufacture extended rings that will do the trick. I need to know a dimension from bottom of tube to top of ring base to make sure my scope power ring clears it. I want as low a mount height as possible while still accomodating the power adjustment ring, which measures 1.375" dia. That means that I need a distance from bottom of tube (1") to top of base of at least 0.2".

    If anyone has any brand of extended rings that they could measure I would appreciate the information, including the manufacturer and nominal height of the rings. I will need to get two extended of same.

    I am mounting a Hi Lux 2-7, long eye relief to a Rossi lever R92 in 44 magnum. I know that is frowned upon by lever gun enthusiasts, but my eyes demand it. Using a weaver rail by Rossi, so these need to be weaver type rings.

    I currently have Burris Z signatures, medium height, and those mount the optic at the right height, but the scope is too long behind the rear ring, and protrudes above the ejection port, thus a potential obstruction to ejected brass. (have not shot this configuration yet).

    Still looking for some assistance. Not sure I made the question clear. Here is an example of the ring config I need: http://www.hawkeoptics.com/2-piece-1...forward-2.html

    I need the dimension between the top of base and bottom of tube, to make sure the power ring of my scope clears the base. I would mount these with the extended ring at the rear, extension forward to move the scope forward.

    I need that dimension to be >0.2", but not too much greater. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Any ideas on how to get that info appreciated if data not available. I am not sold on the specific brand of rings.

          No response to emails (2) as of yet. Have not contacted the other manufacturer that I have identified.
