I've got a MK 6 en route, and I need to order some rings. Will I get enough clearance with Seekins lows (34mm 0.92"), M40 contour barrel, 20 MOA base? What are you guys mounting them with?
 
I used them with a rem varmint contour and there's some room in there. I'd be surprised if they didn't work for you.
 
For what it's worth I don't get a good cheek weld with low rings. I usually like at least medium rings if not high but I'm sure you know what you like best. Just didn't know if you'd though of that. Especially if you are used to taller rings. I don't like putting a lot of cheek pressure on the stock as I feel it makes my shot a bit shakier. I like my cheek to just be very lightly resting on the gun FWIW

Seekins low are plenty tall enough for 50mm Schmidts...and i think I even squeaked a 56 into a set...all with mtu contour 700s. Unless the Leupold uses a super thick tube (unlikely) that skinny little 44mm id bell will clear without issue.
