[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1370584, member: 12995"] Different companies use different methods... 1) Some/most companies measure the base of the ring's trough (the very bottom of the curve), to the top (highest point) of where the ring itself sits on the base. 2) Some measure from the direct center of the tube in the rings, to the top of where it sits on the base. TPS is one of the companies that uses the 1st type of measurement. Seekins, Nightforce, and many others all use the 2nd type of measurement. Also, don't forget about the added height of the picatinny rail over the height of your receiver. For example, I'm confident these rings will fit, because I use .927" height (type 2 measurement) 30mm rings on a Sendero with a 20MOA EGW base, with a 56mm Zeiss scope, and everything fit with plenty of clearance. You should have no issues with .885" high rings, as they're only .042" (1.0668 millimeters) difference in height. [/QUOTE]
