Low... Center to center, they're 1.675" on a 700 action (I measured, not a guess.) So unless you're rocking a bull barrel with that scope, you'll have plenty of room.

I mounted a new 3x9x40 VX2 on my CDL SF .260 using the lows and they are a perfect fit.

I normally buy direct from Talley but Midway has them on sale right now at a 21% discount.

Oh, and go with the lows for sure!

You can buy Talleys right here from the Gear Shop. I've bought a couple sets from Rick.

I check with alignment bars first to see if lapping is required with any set of rings. The rings themselves will likely be machined well, very round and uniform. But nobody can tell you how straight your receiver holes are on your particular rifle. Often can get up/down variation on 700's too.
