Vortex Optics Tactical 30 mm Ring Hoog

The Vortex Tactical 30 mm High Ring is a robust mounting ring designed for the secure and precise mounting of rifle scopes with a 30 mm tube diameter. Thanks to its high-profile design, this ring positions the scope 30 mm from the mounting base, making it ideal for firearms and airguns fitted with a Weaver or Picatinny rail.
Vortex’s Tactical Ring series is renowned for its durable construction, reliable clamping and precision finish. This makes this mounting ring an excellent choice for shooters looking for a solid base for their rifle scope.
Designed for stable and reliable installation
A secure rifle scope mount is essential for maintaining consistent zeroing. The Vortex Tactical Ring is designed to hold the rifle scope firmly in place, even during intensive use or under heavy loads.
Thanks to its precise fit, the rifle scope remains securely mounted without any unwanted movement or slippage.
Suitable for 30 mm rifle scopes
This version is suitable for rifle scopes with a 30 mm tube diameter.
The high-profile version positions the centre of the rifle scope tube 30 mm above the mounting base, providing sufficient space for a wide range of objective lenses and various weapon configurations.
Always check beforehand that the ring height you have chosen is suitable for your rifle scope and the diameter of the objective lens.
Compatible with Weaver and Picatinny rails
The Vortex Tactical Ring is designed for mounting on both Weaver and Picatinny rails.
As a result, the mounting ring is compatible with a wide range of firearms, airguns and other platforms that use these common rail standards.
Robust construction
Vortex has developed this Tactical Ring for long-term use in a wide range of conditions.
The robust construction ensures a secure fit and provides the stability required for accurate shooting, even during intensive use at the shooting range or whilst hunting.
Easy assembly
To ensure optimal fastening, Vortex recommends using the correct tightening torques during assembly.
The recommended values are:
- Base clamping screw: 35–45 in/lbs
- Ring screws: 15–18 in/lbs
For maximum accuracy, Vortex recommends using a torque wrench, such as the optional Vortex Torque Wrench Assembly Kit.
Vortex VIP Guarantee
Like virtually all Vortex products, this Tactical Ring is also covered by the well-known Vortex VIP Warranty.
This warranty provides long-term support in the event of material or manufacturing faults, so you can invest in your equipment with confidence.
Practical insights
The quality of a rifle scope is only as good as the mount to which it is attached. A stable mounting ring prevents the scope from shifting and directly contributes to consistent zeroing and accurate shot placement.
By choosing the correct ring height, you also prevent the scope from hitting the barrel or handguard and maintain a comfortable shooting position.
