RE: Scope ring: see-through or not see-through
I am not a fan of see through mounts. I have them on a few of my rifles and can honestly say that since I put a scope on the rifle, I have NEVER used the see through aspect other then on the target range for fun.
Your scope mentioned is a great scope. On three power it would have a good field of vision for close up shooting. For that reason I would look at getting the scope as low to the barrel as possible. Even if that means removing the rear sight. Set them in a safe place and if you ever decide to sell the rifle and keep the scope, you have brand new never been damaged rear sights to put back on the rifle.
Another reason I do not like the see through mounts is it puts the scope too high off the stock. The way to accuracy is consistency. That even relates to head placement on the stock. When you have a high scope it seems you are always lifting your head from time to time to get that perfect sight picture. There is no consistency in that, hence a lack of accuracy will and can result.
If I wanted to go with the quick release rings, be sure to get a matching set of bases. I made that mistake with standard weaver bases and Burris Quick release rings. I never could get it to come back to true zero after taking the scope on and off. Others have told me my mistake was not getting matching bases. They are probably right. Also the quick release does make it easier to clean not only the rifle but the scope as well. Scopes suffer fowling from blow back out of the breech. It is much easier to clean that scope when you can remove it.
So in your case I would pull the rear sight and look into some quality Leupold bases and quick release rings. Mount that scope as low to the barrel as possible and practice with it. I think you would be most satisfied for your sporting goods dollar...
Just my opinion mind you..
