    How do I identify a Canadianicon contract Kahles ZF69? I've read several times those are in certain serial ranges (or do they additionally have different elevation markings versus the ZF69 for the Steyr SSG69?), but would appreciate any particular help with that.


    Edit: for what I know they had a 25,6mm scope tube from factory, not 26mm. Would that nevertheless work with RALS 4 rings too?

    The RALS3 (1 inch - 25.4mm) rings are the ones that should be used with the 25.6mm scopes. The RALS4 rings are best only used with the 26mm tube scopes.

    The RALS4 rings can be difficult to find but the correct RALS3 rings are much more common. There are gloss painted and parkerised versions - you want the parkerised ones for a C3/M82 sniper.

    One of my scopes has one of each rings on it - The shiney rounded ring, and the square anodized matt black ring (they can't per parkerized as they are aluminium).

    RALS4 from the picture I took.

    I could use a set of extra steel bases if anyone has a spare set.
