Base Rail question

I'm trying to determine the type of base rail I have. It is a one piece and came with a stiller diamondback action. I am familiar with Davidson bases as I have a few mounted, but this one is a little different. It stands taller but looks similar in configuration. I have seen rings advertised to fit either 11 mm rails, 11 mm Davidson rails and even 3/8" Davidson style bases. I presume these are similar, but slightly different.

I want to order some new rings, but would prefer to order the correct ones the first time.

Thanks for your help
 
Yep - thanks Dusty. I pulled a set of Kelbly's I had & they fit nice & snug.

Thanks
 
How much is your time and effort worth? You could save $30-$40 per 100 reforming Lapua 308 (or any factory 308/260 for that matter) standard LR primer or (308 Palma small primer),but again what's your time and effort worth. I'd stick with the factory 6.5x47 brass.

Not sure where the 11 mm comes from but a dovetail cut with a 1/2" dovetail cutter will just slide on a Kelbly base. The corners are just knocked off the side of the Kelbly base to give a small flat instead of a sharp edge. From edge to edge on the Kelbly base measures app. .475".
