savage 110 ba owners with a NF 56mm please chime!

[Grizzdude]

Hey guys I just picked up a savage 110 ba .338, I have a 1 pc 30moa ken ferrel rail and a NF NXS 5.5-22 56mm. Just wondering whats the lowest NF rings I should get that still allows the NF caps to be put on. Thanks

PS. I'm out of town right now and can't physically make the measurements but would like to order up my rings today if possible.

With the NF UL .885" rings on my 110 the 56mm sunshade kissed the barrel only during recoil, just enough to leave a very slight mark on the sun shade. However I was running a 45 MOA base.

I moved to the 1.00" rings.

sounds like I should go with the 1.00" rings

I'm not sure the height of the other base you put on but using the stock BA rail and a NF unimount I was able to fit Butler Creek caps over the front with about enough room to fit a dime (keep in mind that was on the forward, lower rail). I got lucky, I wasn't sure how that would measure out but it's just about perfect.

I had to use Badger highs 1.125 with the factory rail. Just room with the shade on to stll fit BC cap.
