New to me, thanks to a good 24 hour member.

Don't need or want top line glass as in Swarovski type. I won't be shooting in dull light, this is a brown bear only rifle for me. BUT I do want a dependable scope. Which might bring me right back to top line. I just have not dealt with anything much larger than 338/378

I want this to be done correctly, so do I drill out and tap the reciever for larger screws?( I did read the ring thread FWIW), and use what bases? I have used warne, they are heavy and solid bases.

There will be a distinct possibility of salt issues.

Having access to the irons isn't a bad thing. Not keen on levers, but would consider detach with a torx etc...

AL mounts like Talley are fine with me to.

Just need to know if screws anywhere need to be upgraded.

And if something along the lines of a fixed or low power super sniper would be a decent match or look elsewhere. I know the super sniper has taken a beating on my 50 bmg and is still trucking right along.

Thanks for any input!

Jeff
