It is a 56mm bell so it should be about 1/8 inch on the bottom closer than a 50mm. Do you have at least 1/8 inch clearance?

Mine is less then an 1/8th. Ohioguy put the WCE 56mm on a 700ML and used the DNZ high.

This is on a stock .50 Savage. The barrel is thinner. Currently it has on a Weaver style base and rings and has about 1/8 clearance. I have found that the DNZs seem to run a bit high. I got by with lows on a large bell that was on a Rem 700 with a pencil barrel. Different creatures of course.
From what info I gained it looked like it would be quite close but no actual real world experience.

Dednutz is always great about getting back timely with answers. Tim Work does not think the medium will work and perhaps not even the high. He said I would need the barrel to be at least .140 lower than the top of the receiver for it to work with the high. I cannot get an easy measurement until after season when I remove the current setup. It looks from eye estimation that the difference is about .125.
If any of you have a large shank round top Savage MLII without a scope on it if you can give me the difference in height from the top of the receiver (the step down or drop off) at the barrel about 3 to 4 inches more towards the muzzle I would have the information needed.
If I cannot get the DNZ to fit I will just use my Farrell base and appropriate rings. Thanks

I took some measurements as best I could, looks close but too close it appears.

My barrel profile is probably heavier than yours, and we are comparing rem to Sav, but my WCE barely clears with the DNZ high mount.. It wouldn't even be close to fitting on my gun with a medium.
