Leupold QRW ring height

I am looking at buying a set of QRW rings, but I am confused on what height to purchase.

On Midway USA, the ring height (base of ring to bottom of scope tube) is listed as: Low- .23", Med- .38", and High- .48".

The Leupold site lists them as .75", .88", and 1" respectively. I don't know where they are measuring from.

Anyone know what the actual dimensions are?

I need a ring that is .625" from the top of the base to the bottom of the scope tube.
 
Leupold measures from the middle of the ring to the base, that's why Midway's listing is 0.5" smaller - half the diameter of a 1" scope tube - than Leupold.
 
A .625" high, quick release, Weaver style ring. That's higher than what you see on bolt actions, and lower than on AR's.
What's it for?
 
10/22 with NoDak Spud peep sight/rail. Will be used mostly for plinking fun, I want to be able to easily put a scope on and off for more precise plinking. Guess I put this in the wrong forum, but I did get an answer. :)
 
Weaver, TPS, and Burris make rings in the .625 to .75" height range.
Don't know of any quick release rings that height, but any of those would be pretty quick, as long as you have the wrench.
 
I found a set of Weavers, don't have the QR lever, but the bolt head has a wide slot that could be unscrewed with a coin.
 
Weaver's traditional scope rings are fine on a .22... and the ultra-low height is one of a kind. I always wind up botching the screw head and scratching the overplate by the screw. Not so sure how the 2 screw on one side w/leverage pulling up on the other holds, but it is a tested design of many years; and usuallyh Very Inexpensive.

I used to use Leupold QRW and PRW ring, but the design caused me to scratch 2 nice scopes' tubes and begin wrapping the tube w/construction paper before removing or installing the top ring-half.

I moved onto the vertically-split Warne Maxima design and never got another scratch, saved a lot of money, and got great accuracy results. Mostly use Tactical rings from TPS on centerfires bigger than .223rem. and like the Leupold QR style for most bolt actions I have using same long action receiver.
