Hello

I have a savage model 10 flcp-k rifle in .308. It is a short action rifle with the fluted bull barrel. Round top action.

I think I am looking at needing 1.102 heigh to center of scope.

I am planning to buy a swfa 3-15x42 scope with the butler creek flip open lens caps.

I am looking to mount this scope with the one piece DNZ scope mount stock # dnz34200t medium or dnz36200t high. Not sure what hight I need.

Another option is the talley lightweight aluminum one piece mount. not sure what hight I would need or if I would need the extended mount.

What do you recomend? 

Thanks

Clint

Lows. Low Talley LW's, friend. Works perfect with a 42mm objective. You could probably go with Talley Extra low's. 
If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

Lows. The mag ring hits the base part of the mount with the X-Lows. Unless you move the scope back enough for it to clear, but that threw the eye relief to far off for me. We use the Talley Lightweight's on every setup we can and they perform flawlessly.

Thanks for the correction. I didn't think of that. I run low's instead of Xtra lows because I use a stock pack.
