          Hi, Im new here.. anyone there who has a weaver V-24 6-24X42 or a Grand Slam 6-20X40? I've been searching for weaver scopes objective outside diameter specs but with no luck even in weaver's catalogue. I'm planning to put it on my Marlin 917VST.
          And if someone who might have the same setup out there, what good mounts should i buy so i can mount either of these scopes as low as possible?
          Any information would be greatly appreciated

FYI: midway-usa, at least in their paper catalog, lists the o.d. of lenses for most scopes

Also, you might have to go with medium rings on that Marlin with that scope and no-contour barrel. I have the similar model rifle in .22 mag. but no scope yet. Ring height varies with brand, however. Are you using the grooves/tip-offs or the Weaver-style bases?  I think Warne has their ring height dimensions on their website.

Thanks guys for the info. Midway lists OD at least 1 mm smaller than the actual size. Ill be using weaver style bases, I heard #s 15 and 16 fits 917 rifles.
