I have an 700 Remington action with EGW 20 moa base on the way. I will be mounting a Zeiss Conquest 50 mm. What height rings do I need? I am guessing medium.

Thanks in advance

Re: Ring Height?

Try search. But since you asked:

Overall diameter of objective in mm divided by 2
+ 2 or 3mm if using scope covers, if not, dont worry bout it.
subtract base width in mm.
multiply by .03937
= minimum ring height in inches

someone else came up with this & works well. I have another crazy math formula that works for me.
