Looking for Seekins ring height for an AI AX, 591, USO 3.5-17. I want to get it as close as I can with Butler caps but don't want to order three sets to figure it out. Thanks
 
I guess you are SOL on this one, maybe someone will come along that can help you out. Did you check their website? When I bought my XLR they had a formula on their website to figure your ring height.
 
I went with the LaRue LT120 VZF. I know it will work but was looking for something a little lower. Better safe than out an extra $200.

That might/should work. I have a LT111 (not on a an AX) with that same scope. The only issue I could foresee is that the bolt handle might hit the rear scope housing depending on where you have it on the rail to accommodate your eye relief. I use my scope with scope caps on an bighorn action and a Remington action with a KRG bolt lift and with the 1.5 base height of the Larue 111 I have enough space between the two but I am not sure I could go lower and not run into issues.

LT120 worked out perfect. It is a little closer with the ard but still gtg. Bolt clearance is sufficient; thanks for the replies.
