(first post)
Hello I just purchased a SS10X42M and while I am awaiting it's arrival, I figured that I would ask the forum's opinion on the preferred mounting methods. This scope will be going onto a Remington 700 PSS. Thank you to all in advance. |

Thank you for the quick reply and info provided. Looks like I will be opting for the Burris Xtreme Tactical 1" Rings Matte Low (1/4"). When all is set up, I will provide a pic for the forum. Thanks again.

I would get a one piece base. It will add strength to the receiver of the gun making it more ridged. Get the low rings as well, with a SS they will be fine. An SS is a 30mm scope, you will need 30mm rings not 1 inch rings.

That would work, but it limits you a lot on how you can mount the scope to your gun. I would get a 20 MOA one piece base. Either an IOR, Badger, or TPS.

Nice choice in rifles my friend!!! remember the Super Sniper has a 30mm main tube not 1inch. So you have to go with the 30mm rings. http://www.swfa.com/pc-4649-633-burris-xtreme-tactical-30mm-rings.aspx as for a base. High dollar, but excellent. http://www.swfa.com/pc-8304-468-badger-ordnance-maximized-scope-1-piece-rail.aspx Good price Good base. http://www.swfa.com/pc-11561-1773-warne-tactical-1-piece-base.aspx Also SWFA is soon going to get TPS bases and rings. RIGHT CHRIS!!! Edited by Steelbenz - October/21/2008 at 12:24 |

Ok. First off, I would like to thank everyone for their input on the subject. It was nice to get your advice, especially since I am new to bolt action rifles.... After reviewing all the advice, I have decided on the following rail and rings, even though I was not initially sure what constituted a long or short action rifle. (and I am still not 100% sure of the classifications, but I was told that I have a short action)
Rail- Badger Ordnance Maximized Scope 1 Piece Rail Matte Remington 700 Short Action 20 MOA Rings- Badger Ordnance Max-50 Scope 30mm Rings Matte Standard Height (.823") Max-Alloy I just called SWFA and unfortunately, the glass will not be in before the rail & rings. That's just my luck. |

With that set up you'll be able to pull a truck with it and still not knock the scope out of whack!!! LOL

True, but I am kind of thinking ahead in case that I decide to get something a little bit farther reaching that the 700.
