I'm putting together my M1A build and I ordered an Mk 4 fixed 10x with a 40mm obj lens. Also got a KAC M14 RAS with the stripper clip mount for a good closeout deal at a local store so figured I'd use that as a mounting solution because I'm also going to put a PEQ-2A on it - couldn't go SAGE or other chassis system because I'm in CA and I want to be able to change magazines without a mag lock.

Anyways, so I plan on using a Leupold with a 40mm objective lens and the M14 RAS as the mount, what height rings do I need? I prefer to go with Leupold branded rings as I get a great discount from promotive. I ordered mediums (.84 high) but looking at pictures I might have gone too low. Will the medium rings work with my setup or do I need to go a step up?

Thanks.
