Thanks for all the help with rings and bases, i have no idea about that stuff. My rifle is a .300 win mag, rem 700 sps. I have no idea what the barrel contour is the rifle is pretty much all stock and remington website didnt even list what it was. It is 26" long but i dont think that makes any difference. I am still a little confused about bases though. Is there a benefit for buying the more expensive picatinny style than a dual dove tail? Also i like the thought of the talley liteweight one piece. If anyone could give me more info good or bad or both on those three things that would help me out. Especially those of you who own one of them or chose something else over them. And as soon as i get scope and rings i will throw a pic up, but i dont think you want to see my scopeless stock remington.
