I have the Weaver Grand Slam rings and base on my Savage 110.

Also, here's something that a lot of people (Savage rifle owners) don't realize at first. On the Savage 111 and older 110 models, that long action bolt and chamber is looooooooong!

You need to see how long the main tube is on a rifle scope. Bushnell scopes have pretty long main tubes and can mount on virtually any rifle with a 2 piece setup. Nikon scopes (was my first choice) are just a hair short, and you'd need to get offset rings, or a one piece base setup.
