12FCV Height of receiver over barrel

I want to put a Vortex scope with a 50mm objective on the Savage Model 12 FCV in .223 that I am looking to buy. I am trying to figure out whether the objective will clear the barrel with low Vortex Tactical rings. I have the other measurements but I can't find out the height of the receiver over the barrel. It appears to be fairly significant. I also cannot tell whether there is any taper to the barrel as it leaves the receiver.

I have nothing but the Vortex scope in my possession.

Width of the objective lens = 2.52 (measured outside to outside per Vortex)
Center of the objective lens = 1.26 (calculated)
EGW picatinny rail = .3 to .35 (estimated)
Vortex Low Tactical = .83 (base to center)

Total = 1.13
Difference (1.26 - 1.13) = .13

If the top of the receiver is at least .15 higher than the barrel, then I'm there, I think, without a scope cover that is...

The other "unknown" is whether, since the picatinny rings wrap around the rail, do I really have the .3 rail height to work with.

Any thoughts or has anyone configured their 12FCV this way?

Thanks!

The diameter of the receiver is 1.350", the diameter of the barrel is 1.055, do the math.

Thank you, Sir.

It should clear, I have a PST 6-24 mounted in seekins low rings on a farrell base on my Savage 12 LRP.
