Greetings,

I need some advise. I recently pruchursed a Winchester Model 70 Extreme Weather and a Leupold VX5 HD 3-15X44. I want to go with the Tally one piece rings.

I can not figure out if I the medium height rings will work or if I need to get the High's?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Got this from Talley's website

For Alloy lightweight scope mounts -

Low Mounts for 1 inch scope tube with scopes up to a 40mm objective.... for 30mm scope tube - for scopes up to a 44mm objective lens with a sporter-weight barrel

Medium Mounts 30mm scope tube - for scopes up to a 50mm objective lens if your rifle has a sporter-weight barrel.

High Mounts 1 inch scope tube for scopes up to a 50mm objective lens if your rifle has a sporter-weight barrel. 30mm scope tube for scopes up to a 56mm objective lens if your rifle has a sporter-weight barrel

Extra-High Mounts 1 inch scope tube for scopes up to a 56mm objective lens if your rifle has a sporter-weight barrel. 30mm scope tube for scopes up to a 56mm objective lens if your rifle has a has a heavier contoured barrel

Heavier contoured barrels and varmint weight barrels may require you to go one step taller.

Steel rings with steel bases are normally taller in each category, so you can usually go one step shorter.

How to calculate scope mount height using math -

Determine the outside diameter of your scope's objective bell housing, subtract the scope tube diameter, divide that number by 2, consider the amount of step down where the objective lens will be positioned once the scope is mounted, and consider room for lens covers.

Mediums should be fine.

Medium will be fine, Lows work with some but do not allow for room if you want to use a lens cover or that is what I have found with 44mm objectives.
