The wife got me a winchester model 70 featherweight, 308 for Christmas, and my father got me a leupold vx3 3.5-10x50. I assume medium rings will be too low, so shod I just go ahead and order some high rings right from the start ?
 
Don't know if talley makes rings for the 70 but I know their mediums for other makes will fit 50 mm scopes. I believe warne is the same way.I have talley lows on my rem 700 , howa 1500 and ruger American with 40mm scopes.Have warne mediums on a heavy barrel savage with a 40mm scope with A O.should fit a sporter barrel rifle with a 50mm no problem.My talleys are all lightweights with integral bases.

Not sure about Leupold site, but somewhere I've seen where you just plug in the rifle and scope information and the site will calculate for you what will work. I'm guessing "mediums" would work as your Feathweight barrel is a slim contour, plus being a short-action the objective would be that much more forward where it hangs over the barrel, at least in my mind. I could be wrong and often am..har.
Cheers
