I just measured mine and it is roughly .45" from the top of the action to the top of the base(measuring end closest to the recoil lug). This is only an approximate measurement because it was hard getting the calipers in there with the scope mounted, but it's close.
What scope and rings are you using? I have a Sightron 50mm scope with Burris Sig Zee 30mm med rings and it fits pretty nice.
