Not the Leupold, but I've mounted Pentax Lighter 2.5X's (similar size scope) on a few guns. On the ones with a rail base I've used Leupold PRW mounts. These are a little heavier, but very solid and reliable.

I did have one gun drilled to use the Tally LW One Piece Rings and used Lows on that rig. Nothing wrong with it, but I went back to a rail with weaver-style rings on that rig too.
It comes down to your cheek weld and being comfortable with the position of the scope. Try it from a sitting position and in odd positions to see what works best for you. The mediums seem to fit the bill for me, but honestly there isn't a lot of difference in the two.
To answer your question on the Infinity rings, here is an option

Thanks. I'll be mounting this scope on a 20 gauge Super X3 Cantilever barrel.

In that case, unless it sits lower than most cantilever mounts I've seen, you may be better off with lows.
