Planning to use a 1-piece Picatinny base, may be flat, may be 20 MOA elevated. The scope will have either a 50 or 56mm objective. I'd like to have to only buy rings once, so any guidance will be appreciated.

Burris xtr lows are a perfect fit on a 20 moa base. (50 mm). You will have to go higher on a 56 mm objective.
the low works with my Slll with enough clearance on a varmite barrel
IOR lows and 1/4" rings from base to the bottom of the ring curve work just fine with a 50mm PST Viper with a Model 10 predator hunter.
earl39: this the 8-32x model scope?
Yes and also using a 20 moa weaver picatinny rail. I have them on both the 6-24 and the 8-32 Slll. if you can hold off ordering something i will check my bull barrel tomorrow when i get back home but i think i am using a med on it.Quote:

An EGW base with Burris Signature Zee medium rings, the lowest ones they make, and a 50mm objective left the scope way too high.
earl39: good deal I can wait to verify
Thanks
I'm also using an EGW (non HD) 20 MOA base.
Golfer with a lightweight varmite barrel using low burris Xtreme Tactical Rings i have 1/8" clearence with the scope cap on. With a full bull i have the same clearence using medium Xtreme Tactical Rings. the lightweight varmite barrel has 20moa weaver rail and the bull barrel has 20moa EGW rail. Hope this helps.
