Interestingly enough, this rifle used to wear a VX3 2.5-8 on Leupold mounts. I took that scope off and put it on my sons rifle and my intent was to put this Nightforce on the .375. I never liked the Leupold mounts to begin with, but I bought the gun used that way. I'd love to use Talley steel bases and screw lock rings, but I don't see that working, as shown with the QD rings pictured above. This scope is just a hair shorter tubed than the Leupold. BSA17, thanks for that pic. No ejection issues? I cant see the other side, is that a Classic or push feed action?
No problem buddy. That is actually a 300wsm, so it is a short action. Not that it would make a difference, as winchester does a good job at ejecting empties. Unlike some others (Sako for example). It is a CRF action. In actuality, it is an FN PBR XP, but the rifle started out as a classic action model 70. I wish I had a pic of the other side. This is about as good as I can do:

The scope in this pic has a 40mm objective and is different than the first pic I posted. The rail is a 1913 mil spec and the rings I used were the Burris XTR on the 40mm objective and in the other pic I used TPS rings with the Nikon monarch X 4-16x50. Those rings are more streamlined and very robust and also made of steel. I believe.
