Getting ready to order my AIAX chassis for a Remington 700 SA. I currently have a Seekins 20moa base with 30mm Seekins medium rings. My scope has a 44 mm outside diameter with a 40mm objective. Will I clear the front tube with this setup or will i need to order in something else?

If not, what ring height should I go with?

I noticed euro optics has the AI scope bases in stock for the Remington actions, would I be better off using this base and my medium rings?

Been searching and haven't found any information for my setup

Thanks
 
I am running 1.375 NF rings (50mm obj ) and could probably come down a size. It is still very comfortable and I have only raised the cheekpiece slightly ( around 3/16" ).

I would try Seekins Xtra high or Seekins AR height. I am pretty sure your current rings are way too low.
