I switched to Talley's on all my hunting rifles. They fit well and are very secure and very light.

Talley's are a perfect fit for the sleek X-Bolt Speed. Great rifle BTW, looking at one of their X-Bolt 2 in 7mmPRC.
I prefer avoiding pic rails unless they are bedded. They also usually make it a little tougher to mount the scope low, which I prefer. I used Leupold rings on my Xbolt and they never have given me a problem.

If you are going with a Vortex scope, use Vortex Rings. I have found them to be especially good for high recoiling rifles. I have been using the Vortex Pro rings on 30-06, 300 and 338 Win Mags with great success. They hold well, never had any movement and they are reasonably priced.

Another vote for a picatinny rail....then you've got basically unlimited choices on rings. I like the Seekins Precision rings, MDT makes some very solid rings, as well, but they are not light.
I've had excellent results with Talley lightweights one piece rings/bases. I can get the scope as low as possible to the barrel and I've never had one rattle loose.
I use Burris XTR Signature rings on all my rifles. Never had an issue with slippage and they leave ZERO ring marks on the scope tube.
I only use Murphy Precision pic rails. They are the best to be had in my opinion. Also, you give them a call and Cameron Murphy, the owner, usually answers the phone. Not only will he answer any questions but will also make a custom rails to your specs.

I have an a bolt,not sure how closely built they are, I have a 40 mm scope on it if I was to mount a 50 mm it would take taller basses than stock.
