Which Tikka T3 picatinny rail: EGW or Nightforce

[atek3]

Installed a Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x on my Tikka T3 using a DNZ one-piece. Sadly, the scope is low enough that the brass binds on the windage knob.

I have an adjustable height cheek piece so I was probably going to put it a bit higher with a picatinny rail and 30mm rings. Question, which Pic rail, EGW or Nightforce.

See attached pic

What ring height do you have there. DNZ makes a high one piece. That way you're only paying $70 for new rings as opposed to $57+rings for the Nightforce or $45-70+rings for the EGW.

But if you just want the picatinny rail I've had good luck with EGW products. I have a pic rail that came on my T3 and just got a thread protector.

I believe I have the egw 20 moa rail. On top of that I have the vortex low precision matched rings. My viper pst 6-24 sits just about perfect on there.

I have a T3 with an EGW rail on it. I'm using Leupold low QRW rings... not sure of their height measurement, but I don't have brass whacking the turret. The Leupold web site may list their actual height.
