Default RE: need help justifying my decision-1st gun...

I'd piece it together. Stay away from the cheapest rings and stick with (this is not an all inclusive list but...) Bushnell Elite 3200s and 4300s, Any Leopold you can find in your price range, or Burris Fullfields. There are so many options on optics it would be impossible to give a run-down on whats good and whats not. Buy the best you can, don't buy anything over 10x and you'll do fine. Many a man who can afford will spent 2 or 3 times the money on a scope than he paid for the gun...so seriously buy the best you can and don't worry about it. You don't have to spend $500-2,000 to get a good solid scope.

Oh, and a Savage 30-06 is going to be hard to beat as a do-all utility gun.
