I think the lowest you can get by with is the heigth of Burris standard medium Z rings.  The signature z rings are a little higher.  I had to remove a little from the top of the hammer to get mine to work.  Depends on your scope.  If you can slide the scope back so that the eye bell does not get in the way of the hammer you may be able to use the low rings.  Larry
