I've got a cz 550 6.5x55 I would like to put a zeiss with warne rings on top. Im worried I will have to mount the scope to high so the large eye price will clear the bolt handle If you have a zeiss on a cz 550 what rings and hight are you using? Im thinking I will have to use highs so I might as well get a 50mm 
 
Is the 3.5-10-44 worth the extra money over the 3-9x40

Dale...I have a Zeiss 6.5-20x50 mounted on a CZ527 in 204 Ruger.  In my case, I used the factory mounts and they did clear the bolt handle.  Prior to the Zeiss, I had a Nikon Monarch 6-24x50 and it would-not clear the bolt handle.
 
You can call CZ C/S department, they modified my bolt handle for free, I paid shipping to, they paid shipping for the reurn.  I know my CZ Model # is different form the one you qutioned but hope it was informative.

No a 50mm but as you can see on my CZ 550, and depending on your rings, it ought to fit just fine. Have never called them but CZ's CS is a great idea!
