[QUOTE="liltank, post: 397519, member: 13275"] All suggestions have been great. I own the Nikon 4.5x14x40 Buckmaster. It has the standard mil-dot and holds up well. I have upgraded to the 6-18x40 with target dot. At 1000yrds the normal reticule berries groundhogs and make it hard to be accurate. For 500 to 800 yards it is the perfect scope. It will also hold up to the recoil of a 300WM. I have the 6-18 on my 300WSM. The Burris is a good option and here is another to wrap your head around: [URL="http://www.libertyoptics.com/index1.html"]Liberty Optics Riflescopes Binoculars Spotting Scopes Free Shipping[/URL] Look for the Vortex Crossfire scopes. There are some guys on here that currently use the Crossfire series scope and have been very happy with the glass and quality of optics for the money.

As far as the Savage is concerned, Choate makes two different stocks that will fit the long action.
