    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

Scopes on ranch rifle

I am considering buying the new stainless mini 14 ranch rifle with synthetic stock (KM-14P/5R). I would like to mount a large objective scope, particularly a Leupold Vari-X III 3.5-10x50. The rifle comes with "low profile" scope rings and I would like to know if this scope will fit so equipped. If not, does the mini 14 ranch rifle use standard Ruger type rings? If not, what kind of mounting system would I need? I am trying to keep it simple and rugged. I would appreciate any advice.
 
William-
Welcome to The Firing Line and thanks for the interesting question. The folks on Mykl's "Art of the Rifle" forum or George Stringer's Gunsmithing Forum should be able to help. You've posted to the Administrative suggestions Forum.

Unfortunately, we're going to have to ask you to repost to either of the other Forums. We don't have the ability to move threads. I'd have emailed this message to you, but your email is not available.
Regards,
Rich Lucibella
