  now i know how high.
  
  but the dilemma remains. my scope is wider then 30mm/1 inch
  
  it looks like its 1 1/4 inch its 3 3/4 in circumference. im usually pretty slick with google but like the neutered dog humping the leg, im shooting blanks

  jasonc14,
  
  Basic tube diameters are:
  
  1" = 25.4mm
  
  1.18" = 30mm
  
  'Looks like' doesn't count when it comes to accurate measuring. Borrow a pair of calipers and measure.
  
  According the the Nikon website, your scope is supposed to have a 30mm tube.
  
  Best.
