Hey guys, newbie to the board here. I'm building a Remington 700 heavy barrel with a Leupold 4.5-14x50 M5 FFP on it. The problem is, I'm in Iraq at the moment trying to order rings and since I don't have my hands on it to measure, I'm not positive if I can get away with a medium height ring or if I'll have to go with a high. Anyone have a similar setup that can give me a hand?

Everything you ever wanted to know about ring height is in that thread.
You definitely will not need high rings. Depending on what you mean by a "heavy" barrel, you may need to go with a medium instead of low. It will depend on the specific contour of your barrel, and the height and cant of your base.
For future reference, use the Sniper's Hide Google Search Function. It is much better than the standard one. Welcome to the Hide.
