Those are medium mounts and there is about 6mm clearance between bolt and scope. It doesn't feel too bad when cycling the action at home. I'll reserve my full judgement until after i've used it some.
I've tried it it some DNZ low rings which are about 2mm lower than these and that is probably too close but it still clears the scope.

Hitting the back of your thumb on the scope I expect with them?

Same.
Lift with the palm up from the bottom and pull the bolt back, roll the hand over to push forward.
Never need to actually grip the bolt.

Doing it as above it's like you slide from opening through to closing it again.
Rather than thunk, thunk, thunk or gripping it. If you know what I mean.......
