In the realm of precision shooting, stability and alignment are paramount. The Marlin XL7 XS7 Winchester 70 scope mount system epitomizes this principle with its robust construction and thoughtful design. Engineered to fit both Long Action WSM and Short Actions seamlessly, these mounts ensure your optic remains steadfast under recoil.
The base screws measure at a sturdy 6-48 x 1/4 inches in length while the ring screws come in at a slightly larger 6-40 x 5/8 inches, each utilizing a standard 7/64 Allen wrench for secure installation. Furthermore, attention to detail is evident in the hole spacing dimensions—measured precisely at .86 inches on both front and back mounts—ensuring compatibility across various rifle configurations.
It's crucial to note that these mounts are not interchangeable; the rear mount stands taller than its counterpart to accommodate the lower receiver end—a feature ensuring optimal sight alignment through meticulous engineering.
Diversity in application is offered through two distinct ring types: Standard rings measuring .63 inches wide with two securing screws per ring provide reliable performance for general use. For those requiring enhanced durability under tactical conditions, Tactical rings extend to .80 inches wide featuring four screws per ring for increased retention strength.
Height options from top of receiver to centerline of scope tube range as follows: Low sits at .92 inches, Medium extends to an accommodating height of 1.05 inches, while High reaches up to an impressive stature of 1.17 inches—all designed with precision aiming comfort in mind.
