What would be your preferred set up to mount a 30mm scope on an M700 chambered in 280 Remington?

So far I have used all the stuff suggested here, and all of it worked fine. At least half the time I use Talleys.
Have also used some other 30mm rings on various bases. They all worked fine too--except Weaver "tip off" 30mm rings don't work very well with heavy scopes on rifles that kick much. They do work fine on my my 6mm PPC, with a medium-weight 3-9x.

I like Burris Signature Zee rings.
I also like DNZ one piece set up. They don't look super sleek/sexy, but they are made well and do the job very well.

If the scope’s not real heavy, I’d us3 Talley LWs.
Don’t have any, but like the way Leupold DDs look too.
What fresh Hell is this?

Have used Talley LWs with heavy scopes on several pretty hard-recoiling rifles, with no problems.

Burris XTR's. If you can get them low enough for you rifle.

For me it all depends on the comb height of the gun. If I'm trying to get the scope as low as I can, I like the Burris Xtreme Tactical 2-piece bases and Zee Rings ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/116752.jpg)
