Guys-

I've got a left handed 700 SPS Varmint in 308. I'm looking to get some 20 MOA bases and new rings to go with it to extend my range. I did some 525 yard shooting this weekend and had to crank my elevation knob all the way up and still hold 3 MOA over.

I looked around and found that 1 piece rails come in regular and left handed. If I buy a regular rail, will it interfere with the LH action at all? Should I just get 2 piece to avoid the possible dilemma?

Also, which ones should I get? I'd like to keep it below $150 total for both. I was thinking:

Nightforce 2-Piece 20 MOA Picatinny-Style Scope Base Remington 700 Short Action Matte

AND

Burris 1" Xtreme Tactical Picatinny-Style Rings Matte Medium

I have a Weaver scope, 1" tube, 40 mm objective.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
