What height Scope rings for CZ527 Varmit with Nikon 40mm scope

Hi all.
I've got a CZ 527 Varmit on the way, as well as a Nikon Buckmaster 4-14x40 scope. I'm wondering what height rings would be optimal. This is a NEW rifle, and I believe it has the new style bolt.
All thoughts and recommendations appreciated.

Medium as a minimum. Magnification selector ring clearance from the bolt and your hand will be the big issues.
I suggest you get some Warne medium rings from a supplier who is prepared to swap for high if necessary.
Best of luck.

zg47,
I'm a fan of Warne Rings, and have dealt with them directly in the past. Sounds good to me.

I just picked up my new 527 Varmint in .204 yesterday from my ffl it was ordered from Buds. To my surprise it had rings with it. Kind of a bummer because I already purchased a set of Burris rings. My understanding was that the American came with rings but not the Varmint. Just thought Id give you a heads up you may want to wait and see if yours has rings in the box also. And mine has the new bolt handle also.

Most CZ centerfire rifles that don't have iron sights do include a set of CZ scope rings. They are a tall height.

Thanks everyone. Mine is also coming from Buds. I think I'll wait until it shows up at the FFL and see if it comes with rings. I'm in CA, so I have to wait the 10 days after the first visit to the FFL.

My 527 KV came with it's own rings and didn't have a problem with mounting a Swarovski with 50mm objective. I suppose some do and some don't come with rings. I recall it even said on the box it came with them, this was several years ago.
