Default Need scope mount and rings

I have a 1.5x6x32 Simmons Whitetail Expedition scope that I want to put on my Remington 760. I currently have a Redfield 3x9x40 mounted on it with the see-thru mounts. I want to put a base and rings on so that I can have the scope mounted lower on the gun. Not wanting to spend much, but what mount and rings should I get? Also where can I find them? Thanks, Scott Woody

Just use a Weaver Base and medium Weaver rings. Thats what I have on my 7600.

Thanks James B. Will med height rings be nesscessary with a 32mm scope? I was thinking low rings would work but I don't know. Thanks, Scott Woody

I thing the low rings will work but I can't say for sure. I like the scopes a little higher than most so I usually just buy all high rings. With 32 mm I think the low ones will work.

The low rings would probably work but you probably need to remove the rear sight. Go with the Mediums and it won't be an issue.

Id just go with weaver mounts myself especially if you are looking to save a buck and still get a quality product.
