OK, after a TON of reading and taking the advice of those on this forum, I've decided to get a Bushnell 4200 Elite 2.5-10 x 40 in silver for my Sako 75 Grey Wolf.  Now on to mounting (I've never mounted a scope before).

With the Sako's dovetailed receiver, do I need bases?  It seems that Warne makes rings that go right on the reciever, while the Conetrol system seemed to require both bases and rings.  Can someone give me the lowdown on my options?  They also have to be silver

The leupold Sako rings will mounts right on also, you just have to lap them for best results.

Millet also makes similar rings,stay away from these=cheap sh*t.

i have always used leupold rings on my sako's & tikka's -

Thanks guys.  Ordered the Leupold rings.  I'll let you know how the mounting goes.  Thanks for the help, this site has been very helpful.

I used the silver Leupold Ring Mounts for a Zeiss Conquest on a Sako M75 in .300 WM and had no complaints. Worked better than expected and far less expensive than the Sako Opti Locs.

Good shooting!
