Upgrade your optics setup with the Talley Manufacturing Lightweight Ring/Base Combo—a trusted, precision-fit mounting solution designed for hunters and shooters who want a clean, strong, and streamlined scope mount without unnecessary bulk. This model features 1-inch rings in a High height, finished in black, and built from durable alloy for a lightweight yet dependable hold. Designed specifically for Tikka T3 / T3X rifles and also listed for Knight MK-85, the Talley 950714 ring/base combo is an excellent choice for anyone searching for a reliable one-piece scope mounting system that’s easy to trust in the field and consistent at the range.
If you’ve been looking online for a Talley Tikka T3 scope mount, Tikka T3X 1 inch high rings, or a lightweight ring and base combo, this is the purpose-built hardware that helps lock your optic in place with confidence.
One-piece ring/base design for strength and simplicity
A major advantage of the Talley ring/base combo is its integrated, one-piece approach—combining the ring and base into a single unit. That streamlined design helps reduce parts and connection points found in multi-piece systems, which many users prefer for a cleaner profile and straightforward installation. The result is a mount that looks sharp on the rifle, keeps your setup tidy, and supports stable optic placement.
For shooters who value repeatable alignment and a solid mounting platform, a one-piece ring/base combo is a smart and proven direction.
Lightweight alloy construction: strong support without added bulk
This Talley mount is built from alloy to help keep overall system weight down—especially important when you’re building a rifle setup intended for long days in the field or for anyone who prefers a lighter, more balanced feel. Lightweight doesn’t mean flimsy here—Talley is known for rugged mounts that are designed to hold up to real use, including travel, weather, and the bumps that come with hunting and range work.
If you want a mount that complements a lightweight rifle build, this model fits that mission perfectly.
1" High rings: ideal for many common scope setups
This model features 1-inch diameter rings—the standard size for a huge range of popular scope tubes. The High ring height offers additional clearance that can be useful depending on your objective size, scope design, and rifle configuration. High rings are often selected when users need more space between the scope and the barrel, rear sight area, or when working with certain optic dimensions.
Because optic fitment depends on multiple factors (objective bell diameter, scope length, receiver contour, lens caps, etc.), choosing a High height option is a practical solution for many builds that need extra clearance.
Precision fit for Tikka T3 / T3X and Knight MK-85
Fit matters with scope mounts. This Talley ring/base combo is listed as compatible with:
Tikka T3
Tikka T3X
Knight MK-85
That rifle-specific fitment helps ensure the mount matches the receiver’s intended mounting geometry, supporting proper alignment and a stable hold. If you’re building out a Tikka hunting rifle or setting up a Knight MK-85, this is the kind of model-specific mount that simplifies your parts search and helps you avoid the trial-and-error that comes with “universal” solutions.
Black finish: clean, low-profile look that matches your build
The black finish is a classic choice for modern hunting and range rifles. It pairs well with blued barrels, matte actions, and black optics, giving your setup a cohesive, professional appearance. It’s also a practical color for field use, keeping the overall look subtle and gear-friendly.
Ideal for hunting rifles, range builds, and dependable everyday setups
The Talley Lightweight Ring/Base Combo is a strong match for a wide range of use cases:
Hunting setups: lightweight, streamlined mounting for a field-ready rifle
Range builds: stable optic placement for consistent zero and repeatable performance
Backcountry carry: helps reduce overall weight while keeping the scope secure
General-purpose rifle optics: a clean mount solution for everyday shooting needs
If your goal is a mount that’s dependable, simple, and built for your rifle model, Talley’s integrated system checks the right boxes.
