Weaver 1 in High Matte Top Mount Scope Rings

The Weaver 49042 is a traditional 1 in high Top Mount ring with a matte finish. It is a straightforward single-ring option without the extension feature found on several neighboring Weaver models. The high position raises the optic more than a medium Top Mount ring while keeping the familiar 1 in tube size.

This ring makes sense when the scope tube is 1 in and the rifle needs a higher mounting position but not an offset ring body. The lack of an extension keeps the ring centered over its base attachment, which simplifies the geometry compared with extension models. A second ring of matching height and style is needed for a complete two-ring setup.

The 49042 is a clean baseline for comparing Weaver’s high 1 in Top Mount choices. If additional fore-or-aft reach is needed, the 49045 dual-extension design provides a different solution without changing tube diameter. For other choices to compare with Weaver 49042, browse optics and rangefinders.
