My understanding is that the extended bases bring the rings closer together. Can anyone give an approximate difference in distance between the different bases? My current setup (M70 .375H&H) is not ideal and with the standard bases puts the ring only a few mm away from the objective.

I use the extended front on Model 70s in 375 and 416. Gives plenty room with most Leupolds I mount up.
 
channelkat I had standard Talley bases on my G33/40 7x57 and was very limited to what scope I could use so I ordered their extended rear base and was able to use the 4X Zeiss that I had intended to from the start.

Enjoyed reading your post again. Believe this is the 3rd time. I am scheduled to hunt w/ Legadema in Sep. Really looking forward to it.
