im looking at the 4-16x42 huskemaw and running a senders contour barrel, can I get away with low Talley mounts?
 
With a 42mm I run low Talley lightweights on everything except the Tikka where I first ran extra low. Keep in mind your rifle's ejection path; those extra low rings fit the scope on the Tikka beautifully but the upward ejection path sent brass right into the windage knob on my scope. I had to swap out to medium rings and a scope with smaller turrets to make that rifle work.
 
****** picture of scope spacing from barrel but it was fine and wasn't to close to barrel

morning, I installed talley high 1" rings and bases on my
257wbee rem. action, hart barrel #7 contour and timmey trigger.
H&S tactical stock.using a Nikon 8x30x44 monarch scope.
I had previously installed a set of medium
height talley rings. the adjustment for the height topped out.
was 4"'s low. with the added high rings the situation was
corrected. I said NO because of my experience. I stand corrected.
I due like warne and talley steel rings and mounts.
when the subject is yotes wolves and hogs let the blood fly.

For anyone looking for a similar setup. I went with the Leupold vx5hd 3-15x44, Talley low rings. This is with a carbon six proof contour barrel. For is perfect!
