Thank you Ken!!!! I really appreciate the time you took. I was shipped the wrong guide with the right label. Mine measures 6.5mm to the inside bottom of the ring.

Yes, Bill, they took care of me just fine. I was not familiar with that series and ordered one spinning guide in my last order. When it came it measured shorter than the casting guides so that threw me for a loop. Right label on package, but wrong guide.

Me too. I had a dozen, but needed one a bit taller.
