I just took delivery of a brand new Winchester Model 70 Extreme Weather in 325 wsm. It will be equipped with a Leupold VX III 2.5-8. What rings and bases do you all recommend to keep the weight down with this combination?

Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

While the Talley's are light, they are higher than I would prefer. You might check out the Dednutz as an alternative.

Take a look at These. I have them on my XBolt 7WSM and they are a really good mount. Allow for low mounting as well. Dednutz DNZ Game Reaper 1 Piece Scope Mounts

warne bases and rings,very strong and don't mark up the scope.But not as light as aluminum rings like talley's. I personally don't like talley's.

Talley Lightweights - just 2 ounces for the set, well made and very strong.
Or regular Talley bases with fixed Rings - 4 ounces, well made and tougher than tough.

+1. Steel Talley's would look the best too.
