Definitely the 30mm Lows. I had a set of Seekins Lows on a seekins 20MOA base on my SPS with a 50mm scope and had plenty of clearance.

Yes Seekins 30mm lows. I just sold my 5r. I used 30mm lows with my 44mm scope.

Just a thought.......

If in the future you're gonna upgrade to a new MTU contour barrel, and maybe a 50mm scope, you'll be needing mediums. It'll save a time and money now to go that route, that's if you can any mediums around.....
