Thanks or the reply. I kinda figured it would be over 1/2" away from the barrel. The medium XTR rings alone give you 1/2" of space between the base and the bottom of the scope. The lows are a 1/4"
from base to scope. I'm going to have to try a few sets of rings so I get the scope as close to the barrel as possible, clear the rail and still be in a comfortable position for me. I cut off the piece of the rail that over hangs the front of the receiver and that definitely gave me more room so I can lower the scope.
