I was wondering if anyone could tell my what size rings (LOW, MED, or HIGH) that I would need for my setup. I have a Remington model 700 SPS Varmint. I am purchasing the Millett TRS-1 4-16x50 (30mm) rifle scope. I was also thinking of going with the Millet short action Picatinny Rails. Could anyone please tell me what size rings I would need for this setup?

Thank you
 
Re: Ring Size?

Thanks Nate. I've looked but I am not finding the answer I need. I'll keep looking though.

I am not an expert on firearms but I have learned something about ring heights with regards to optics. You would need low rings if you were using tps,badger,leupold mark 4, Barrett or nightforce.

 
Re: Ring Size?

Per my phone conversation with Ms. Seekins, a 6.5-20x50mm Leupold MK 4 requires size medium Seekins rings when used with a 20 MOA Seekins base. Their size medium rings seem lower than other manufactures comparable rings (a good thing to me).
 
Re: Ring Size?

Thanks everyone for the reply's. I ordered the medium. I'll let you know how it works out.

Thank again!
