Howdy everyone. I hate asking stupid questions. But here goes anyway. I received a browning x bolt medallion for Christmas. I am looking to put a hunting scope on it. Most likely with a 30 mm tube. Curious about which mount and rings to buy. I am considering a Talley picatinny rail. Advice please.

I would go with an EGW 20MOA rail, and Seekins Precision 30mm 0.82" Low rings, for scopes up to 56mm.
I have an A-Bolt-II that I run this setup on.
I don't know if you have a LA or SA or Magnum action, so here's links for all 3...

www.midwayusa.com I am running a Zeiss Conquest with Tally one piece rings on a Medallion 25WSSM. The rings and scope have been mounted nearly a decade; I have 1060 rounds down the tube on this ultralight bolt. Rings and scope remained solid. Shot it in November and no change to zero. I use the Tally one piece on multiple Savage SS bolt guns as well. Long term happy with this arrangement for a hunting rifle.

I have an X Bolt with a 20 MOA Talley rail with the bubble level in the end with a Nightforce 56” objective in .87 Seekins/Vortex precision rings.
I got a Vortex Razor LHT 3-15x42 for my son’s .270wsm xbolt. First try was a Warne Mountainlight rail with NF Ultralite low rings. However we thought this resulted in the scope being just a bit too high (non-adjustable McMillan stock). So plan B was the Talley Lightweight 2piece rings, medium height. The Talley lows might have worked but wouldn’t have had enough clearance for the Vortex scope caps. Here’s a pic of clearance with the Talley mid’s.
