I have a Savage 10 fcp-k in .308 and I recently got a Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x40 Mil. Dot Ret. I was wondering what rings and what base you guys would suggest. The rilfe is going to be shot at 100 and build up my skills to shoot at 600+
Rifle Scopes Help choosing Base and Rings
Re: Help choosing Base and Rings
Just to beat everyone to it....This is a subject that has been beaten to death, but.....I will help anyway.
Bases and rings are like the scope you bought. It all depends what money you wanna spent. EGW, Warne, Leupold, Nightforce, USO, and Badger are just to name a few.
As far as brand goes that is subjectional. They all make good pieces, everone has their own preference.
Recomandations? Pick a base that is picatinny, with at least a 20MOA slope. That would let you work from 100-1000 yds. I good sturdy set of rings. Brand, style, use, and price are again, personal preference. Make sure they are the same mounting style as you base. Hope this helped.

I agree 100%. The key things here are to get a 1 piece, 20 MOA base as mentioned and a decent set of rings from one of the manufacturers mentioned.

Re: Help choosing Base and Rings
