Med......I also highly reccomend that you lap the tps rings...Tps are pretty good rings.Imo.though all rings whether it be tps or badger will serve you much better with a good lap.....just my .o2

fwiw & imho,
Use a Nightforce or Badger Ring... TPS rings have shown me little.

Yeah, go medium. I've got low's and with my 5.5-22x50mm NF I play havoc getting scope covers on. I've .06" clearance between barrel and sun shade. Scope covers run about .1" thick. Now, I just received the Bushwacker scope cover from Quake and their .1" thick. I tried something. I pulled the scope, installed the Bushwacker scope cover and reinstalled the scope. The Bushwacker is rubber, not plastic, and it compressed enough between the sun shade and barrel to work. Well, we'll see at the range on Saturday.
