Default Which rings and mounts do I need

I just bought another rem 700. I was curious as to what rings and bases would be good. On my other rifle I have the millet angle lock rings and the two piece bases. Somebody told me to check out the warn rings and bases.. Thanks in advance..

I have leupold std rings on several of my rems. They are not the best, but work good. Warnes are good, but heavy. I won't own anything burris anymore. Millets are ok, but bottom line. Badger are best but are made for tactical use.

I have the talley one piece alloys and like em but don't trust em for hard recoiling rifles.. I have em on varmit rigs.

I like my Dednutz mounts, the simpler the better.

Warne are good rings and bases.

What caliber 700 are you looking to scope ?


Recommend "weaver style" bases and rings.


I like Burris Zee Rings among many other reasons, I like the protective inserts that
prevent marring of the scope.

I was skeptical at first but after using them on a Browning X Bolt, I'm very happy with them. Warne's and Talley LW's are excellent choices as well.

I've always had luck with Redfield and Millet. I'd buy a good mount and keep away from See Thru's. For a more inexpensive base and rings look at Weaver's

+2 to Game Reaper. (Dednutz) Cannot go wrong with a 1 piece CNC machined scope mounting rig.
