I need to mount a SWFA fixed 10x scope to a Savage Model 10 Fcp-Sr that comes with a factory installed base. Obviously this is a budget setup, but which rings should I buy?
Also, any advice for relative neophyte about how to do the job properly? I've only ever mounted scopes on one piece AR mounts on flattops, or moving around really really old scopes and rings on my old rifles. Should I remove the factory mount, apply blue locktite and torque to spec with a wheeler FAT wrench? Or is it good to go from factory?
Thanks for reading.
