If you look at my pictures you’ll see there’s plenty of space between the scope’s front element (mine is a Bushnell 6×24-50) and the gun. The front element of your Hawke is 56 mm, – meaning is should only take some additional 3 mm of that space…….
You’ll need 30 mm diameter rings, – so the options within the “Maxima Tactical range” would be the product numbers 614-617. Mine are no 616…
Within the QD (quick detach) range the numbers 213-216 would do nicely.
The difference between the “Tactical” and “QD” is that the latter has a handle that you use to attach the mount to the rail, – the other has a hex-bolt. I prefer the hex-version as I find the handle has a tendency to “catch” anything from branches to t-shirt sleeves while in the field.
Both are as sturdy as you can get them, – and there are videos around where you can see how people throw their guns on the ground to see if they can make it affect zero….
Ring height is individual from one person to another. I prefer X-tra high mounts for viewing comfort, – others may prefer lower mounts….
Hope this helps…….. 😀

Hmm where to buy theese…has checked ebay but no hit on wanted model 616
In terms of height I would think all within the “Maxima Tactical range” or “Maxima QD” range will fit………..

Their high tactical mounts (you may see them in some of the images in my comparison thread) are superb albeit a bit heavy. But they enable me to switch scope from one gun to another without losing my zero…… 😉
