Ballistics guy, thanks for the input. I agree with fast but not not always light. My goal is a lighter version of the Remington sendero. This maybe heavier than some like but I prefer some extra weight so long as it is well balanced, besides, I am still young and dumb enough to carry it. I am...
This will be a moderate weight hunting rifle with the primary goal of deer hunting out to around 500-600 and target shooting beyond. I plan to do a Remington short action and chamber it in 260 Remington. I want the ability to get factory match grade ammo for playing at the range and seeing what...

Hey guys, I'm new to this whole long range thing. I just purchased the savage 111 LRH in 300 win. What would you guys recommend for bases and rings for a Vortex Viper 3.5-10x50. Currently I have a weaver base and Vortex tactical rings. Would you guys change or stick with them.
