Will these ringmounts fit my Winchester Model 70 and what scope objective size do I need for the High height?

Yes, the Leupold Backcountry Ringmounts (MPN 171107) are designed specifically to mount directly to the receiver of a Winchester Model 70 bolt-action rifle. The High profile provides a ring height of 1.1 inches (27.94 mm) from the receiver base to the center of the ring, making them ideal for scopes with larger 44mm to 50mm+ objective lenses to ensure proper barrel clearance.

What are the recommended torque specifications for installing these 7075-T6 aluminum ringmounts?

To ensure a secure hold during rugged Australian outback hunts without stripping the hardware, you should tighten the base or receiver screws to 22 in-lbs. The ring top screws should be torqued to 28 in-lbs.

Are there any Australian electrical or regulatory compliance certifications like SAA or RCM required for this product?

No, electrical certifications such as SAA or RCM and 240V compatibility assessments are not applicable to this product. The Leupold Backcountry Ringmount is a purely mechanical firearm accessory constructed from aerospace-grade 7075-T6 aluminum containing no electronic components.

How do the reversible front and rear features help with scope mounting?

The reversible front and rear design allows you to shift the scope forward or backward to achieve the absolute optimal eye relief for your specific scope length and stock dimensions. Combined with the integrated base and lower ring design, it eliminates weak points while providing flexible positioning for rugged alpine and mountain hunting.

Winchester Scope Rings - Leupold LE171107

Leupold Backcountry Ringmount 1" Win 70 Rvf/R High Matte (MPN: 171107) Overview

The Leupold Backcountry Ringmount 1" Winchester 70 Reversible Front/Rear High Matte (Model: LE171107) offers a streamlined, ultra-reliable mounting solution for Winchester Model 70 bolt-action rifles. Engineered as a highly integrated two-piece system, this ringmount eliminates the traditional separate base-and-ring configuration by combining the base and lower ring into a single, high-strength unit. Crafted from aerospace-grade 7075-T6 aircraft aluminum, this mount directly secures to the rifle's receiver, eliminating potential failure points and maintaining alignment under heavy recoil. The rugged matte black finish is highly scratch-resistant and minimizes glare, performing exceptionally well in high-UV Australian outdoor environments.

Key Features

Integrated Base and Ring Construction: Combines the lower ring and mounting base into a single component to maximize rigidity and simplify installation.
Reversible Front and Rear Design: The reversible ring configuration allows users to shift the optic forward or backward to achieve optimal eye relief.
7075-T6 Aluminum Construction: Offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring the mount withstands extreme field use and harsh weather conditions without adding unnecessary bulk.
High Recoil Resistance: Delivers a rock-solid connection capable of handling heavy calibres without shifting zero.
Zero Electrical Requirements: This is a purely mechanical mounting system. It contains no electronic parts, meaning RCM, SAA, or 240V electrical compliance standards do not apply, making it fully eligible for hassle-free use across all Australian states.
