Default Help me scope my new rifle!

Ok so I finally got my new rifle in, the way it feels in my hands after craving it for so long is undescribable. It's a 338-378 weatherby, no other words besides plain and simple perfection can describe it.
-now that i am done drooling

This rifle was bought for big game, big elk, big bears, you name it. With the potential for long range killing. It drops 8-9 inches at 400 yards based on bullet weight. That is definitly something I want to be able to take advantage of if given the opportunity.

If you had roughly a 1000 dollars to spend on a scope and rings what would you get? They have to be sturdy enough to handle the recoil abuse, and they have to be able to give the clearness and magnification to shoot long range.

Thanks for helping me decide what to top my new baby with!
