[QUOTE="LongBomber, post: 390560, member: 14435"] I pick my rings/bases based on what I use the rifle for. For a light weight packing rifle I like the talley one piece ring/base. Very light, and pretty solid. For a heavy rifle, or target rifle I like a rail and stong tactical style rings. Something like a Nightforce rail and rings, or a setup from Near manufacturing. Very strong, with the ability to handle more than just 2 rings if needed. I have a 325wsm that comes in at 6.8 pounds scoped and loaded. I got free Luepold windage adjustable bases with the rifle, the adjustment screws worked loose constantly, even with blue loctite. I broke off one screw at the range. This rifle has a very sharp recoil, not that hard but pretty quick. It ate 2 Luepold ultralite scopes with the Leupold rings/bases. I switched to the Talley lightweights and have no more problems, and it saved an extra few ounces. [/QUOTE]
