Proper Ring Height ? Accumark + Talley + Leupold

I was wondering if anyone could recommend the proper height for a set of Talley rings that will be placed on a 30-06 Weatherby Accumark with a Leupold 4.5-14 LR scope (40mm obj). Based on my experiences with Talleys on 2 other rifles I was thinking that the med height would be appropriate for the heavy contour barrelled accumark. Any advice you can provide is appreciated. Thanks. Mike

low. It will fit nicely and tight.

I have a 40mm objective on my Accumark 338-378 and use medium rings. With those rings there is probably 8 to 10 mm of clearance. That tells me that there is no reason low rings won't work. It certainly depends on your prefered firing position. In other words, are you a stock crawler or just lean your cheek lightly on the stock. If you are a crawler, you'll more then likely prefer the low rings and the mediums if not.
