I used Talley lows on my GAP with that scope so I'd say they work on a 700.

It's a great scope, but a big scope.

I have two, none on a lightweight rifle.

Lows work on a KS, so can't imagine they wouldn't on a MR

There are much better choices and the rifle will balance

Yep.

As big a VX-6 fan as I am, for a LW rifle I'd lean toward a lighter, smaller scope.

A good suggestion would be the Swaro Z3 3-9x36. It's 12 oz and 1", similar price.

There are others, including the VX-3i series.

If anyone is interested there is a seller on ebay who has these scopes up for auction. He is taking whatever
they bring at auction with no reserves. I just picked one up for under $570.00 and I am sure they will go for less since there is a dozen of them up for auction right now.

Do you have the scope in hand or do you mean you have only turned over the funds?
