This could be utilized on the Smith and Wesson 1854, but would require 30mm extra-high rings, and would be a less-than-ideal fit.

What’s the best scope rings to use for this scope to mount on an AR15?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Ethan, Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on July 11, 2023

I would recommend using a dedicated 1-piece scope mount such as the Aero Precision Ultralight 30mm Scope Mount (linked below). This mount is designed to mount the optic at the ideal centerline height for an AR pattern rifle and allows for enough clearance for up to a 56mm objective lens.

This optic is capable of being mounted on just about any centerfire cartridge, up to and including .50BMG. The key to success is quality rings and bases, at proper torque values!

Scope ring height for this optic?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Hunter, Gear Expert, from OH, United States, on September 27, 2022

The correct ring height to mount the Vortex Crossfire II Hog Hunter 3-12x56mm Rifle Scope will depend on the rifle you are mounting it to. You will most likely need 30mm diameter 1.4" high rings but I recommend using the guide below to help you determine your correct ring height for the specific rifle you are using.
