Hi Folks - Need some help deciding the proper height scope rings for my Swarovski Z6i 2.5-15 x 56 BRHi . 30mm Tube, and 56mm Obhective lens. My rifle is the Proof Research Elevation in 6.5 CM, it is a 20 MOA rail attached to the action.

I have decided to go with the Nightforce Ultralights for my Swaro scope but don't know the proper height to order for my 56mm objective lens.
 
Here you go. First pinned post in the scopes sub-forum. Measure and do the math. It’s a learning experience that will teach you things about your rifle, scope and rings:


Oh, and don’t worry about how many Moa your rail is. That has minimal impact on ring height unless your are trying to run the objective bell within 0.004” of the barrel.
