First post.

I just got a Remington 700PSS .300 Win Mag. I intend to use Badger or similar 20MOA one-piece base and a scope with a 30mm tube and 42mm objective.

What height rings do I need?

Thanks in advance!

Perfect, thanks! I searched and looked through lots of posts, but did not find this one (even though it is a sticky!).
