I think there highs check the ruger web site
receiver is sized different between the front and rear so you actually use 2 different sizes. your gun is right, and it has a medium set of rings.
as long as the scope isn't touching, you're good. i like a minimal gap between barrel and scope... some like higher. as long as it is comfortable and not contacting, screw it down and go shoot it.

Finaly got a scope ordered today.Went with the nikon buckmaster 6x18x40,I know its not a nightforce or leupold for all you diehards but like I said before I am on a budget.And besides found out a couple months ago I have parkinsons disease and the way I shake now I am lucky to hit anything but what the he!! always wanted to try longer stuff so I am going to try it why I still can.Any one recomend a good factory ammo to start with and get sighted in with till I get all my loading stuff.Thanks P.S If any one is intersted there is astore on ebay called the knife store that has these scopes for under $300.Thought it was a pretty good deal $290.00 shipped
here's a link to a factory 243 ammo shoot i performed w/ a couple of rifles: www.baitshopboyz.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18089&PN=5
i handload all my stuff, but you might find some relevance there. the 2 rifles in question are a ruger frontier and a ruger vt (same rifle as yours).
good move on the scope - it will work for ya.
sorry to hear of the parkinsons diagnosis. no fun in that.
good luck!

Dakota, nice testing that was some great info there and a great post.I always load my own just got to wait till brass and dies come. Whats a good bullet to try to start with,any experience with the 105 amax.I am pretty sure my gun is a 1in9 twist. Will the heavier stuff stabalize in it
i load 105 a-max's in mine - it stabilizes them just fine.
here's another link on what i do w/ a new rifle. don't know if it will be of use to ya, but maybe...: www.baitshopboyz.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=18014&PN=5
i did the same thing w/ my ruger vt, except i used atomized stainless steel in the epoxy in a 1:1:1 ratio. turned out extremely well, but i can't find that particular post w/ the pics.
anyway, rugers respond well to bedding.
good luck!

If I aint mistaken you use a low and med to make a low
a med and high to make a med, and a high and a super high
to make a high.Best thing is, if you need to move it up you only need 1 ring.
I think each height moves 'em up .150........
yeah the ruger rings are a hassle if all your others are not
rugers.....
I like the ruger rings myself they really stay put....
Hey a m77 in a .243 sounds sweet..
