[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2026214, member: 25831"] This will depend on the scope objective outer diameter and base height. First or second focal plane scopes can also make a difference. NF 5.5-22x50, SFP+ NF 20 MOA Long action base=NF Ultra lite LOW rings. Bushnell HDMR, FFP + 20 MOA short action base =Hawkins MED rings. I have to go higher as the back of the scope power setting almost touches the back of the base and the front bell contacts the front of the base on any Long action bases. All that said, if SFP scope, I think it is a little more forgiving. On that Rem Long Range I think you could get away with LOWs from just about anyone if using a 20 MOA base, but best to check their website. What ever you do, do not ask Talley for advice, they are clueless. IF you have a 30 mm scope tube, these might fit the bill. Check Hawkins site first though.
