Kimber 8400 Scope Mounts?

[MinneFoCo]

I just purchased a new (to me) Kimber 8400 for a mountain gun. The scope I'm planning on mounting has an objective lens of x44. Any recommendations? I have and like DNZ on my Tikka and like them, but needed a cheek rest on the Tikka stock to line up everything up quickly with ease and regularity. I'd like to avoid modifying the stock to save weight and the hassle. Thanks gang!

I have Talley Lightweights on my 8400 for 4.5-14x40. Work fine.

Crap, I knew you were going to ask. I think M, but it has been so long ago. I just checked on not identified on the mounts. Best to give them a call.

Pretty sure you'll need medium for a 44mm objective. I have lows on my Kimber, but it's a 36mm.

I'll look on my Remington when I get home, it's a 40mm objective and I think I used lows on that as well.

I’ve got medium Talleys on a 84L with a 4.4-14x40 and looks there’s room for a 44mm.

Thank you so much fellas!

Hard to wrong with a set of talley rings

If it's a VX5 get Medium extended Talleys...

I've got lows on a M84 and 40mm leupold w/out AO. I'm not not familiar with your scope. I'm Upping to mediums for better eye alignment, I'm sure there would be more than enough room with mediums.

I'll be running a Vortex Viper HS LR 4-16X44.
