I hate to ask this but I can't figure this out and have searched for my answer but haven't had any luck. What height rings do I need for a Remington 700 s/a with 20 moa base with an MTU contour when using a 3.5-15x56mm Nightforce scope? I currently have Badger standard height and pretty sure they will be too short when I get the rifle back. I want to have the correct ones ordered so I can fit the bikini covers on when the rifle isn't being used.
 
I just emailed badger and they gave me a recommended height for my build in a day. Give them your specs. Aside from contour mine being m24 we have the same build they recommended medium high.

Just tell them Rem 700 SA,20 MOA rail, MTU, tube size , 56 obj

I use 1" height rings on my 56mm objective scopes. Works well with same contour barrel. Med high Badgers should work for you.
