The Warne HyperLite 1 Inch High Scope Rings, Matte Black are a matched pair of scope rings for 1-inch scope tubes, clamping to a standard Picatinny or Weaver rail and finished in matte black. The HyperLite range is Warne's ultra-lightweight ring, machined from 6061-T6 aluminum so it holds the scope rigidly without adding weight to a rifle that gets carried. High is the tallest of the three Warne heights, for large objective bells or a more heads-up head position.
How It Compares
Same rings, different height: Warne HyperLite 1-inch low scope rings (8500M) and Warne HyperLite 1-inch medium scope rings (8501M). Same height, different tube: Warne HyperLite 30mm high scope rings and Warne HyperLite 34mm high scope rings. For the Maxima alternative at this size, see the Warne Maxima 1-inch high scope rings (202LM). Browse all rifle scope rings.

- Large-objective 1-inch scopes that a low or medium ring will not clear

Frequently Asked Questions
What scope tube diameter do the Warne HyperLite high (8502M) rings fit?
They fit scopes with a 1-inch main tube only. Ring internal diameter is not adjustable, so a scope with a different tube size needs a different pair — Warne also makes this height in 30mm and 34mm.
Which Warne ring height do I need for my scope's objective?
The figure that matters is clearance between the bottom of the objective bell and the top of the barrel or rail, so measure your scope's objective outside diameter and choose the lowest of the three heights that still clears it — a lower sight line gives a firmer, more repeatable cheek weld. Warne classifies this pair as High within the HyperLite range and does not publish a centerline height in millimeters for it.
Will the Warne HyperLite 1-inch high rings fit my rifle?
They clamp to a standard Picatinny or Weaver rail. They are not dovetail rings, so a rimfire with an 11 mm dovetail groove, or an action with a proprietary rail, needs a Picatinny base fitted first.
Are the Warne 8502M rings sold as a pair?
Yes — 8502M is one matched pair of rings supplied with its mounting hardware, which is everything needed to mount one scope.
What makes the Warne HyperLite rings lighter than standard rings?
Warne machines the HyperLite range from 6061-T6 aluminum and lists it as their ultra-lightweight ring. Warne does not publish a weight figure for 8502M.
