Rifle Scopes SCOPE MOUNTING HELP NEEDED!!!!!

[[email protected]]

Recently purchased a remington 700 AAC-SD and a Viper Vortex 6.5-20x50 scope. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on a good base and rings.I want a 20 MOA single piece base,but all the ones I can find say they need gunsmithing to be installed. Any ideas?

No need to have a gunsmith mount your base or rings. For less expensive look at EGW, or Seekins. For top of the line I like Badger.

+1 on EGW for a low cost good base or the a little more $ get the Seekins but you can't go wrong with the EGW. There is no need for a gunsmith to mount the base? Do a search on here for mounting? It is no big deal!
You will be very happy with your equipment choices.

Seekins all the way. Best value imho, lightweight too and will last you a lifetime.

There are several hide vendors that sell them.

I got a badger 20moa base and seekings rings.

You'll probably want one of these

And if you've never mounted a scope before I'd use the feeler gauge method.

Badger and Nightforce both make great one piece mounts. Feeler gauge method is great way to mount as per Lowlight's instructions.
