[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1967064, member: 74902"] Don't say what the target weight for your rig is, but I would caution about using a two piece ring set on a heavy recoiling rifle with a heavy scope. One main reason is the rings may not align well because of minor offsets in the holes in the action. If the don't align well, the rings will not grip the scope well and slippage under recoil can occur, or the dreaded and warranty breaking lapping might be in order.... A good rail, bedded to the top of the action will provide a level straight platform for a quality set of rings to ride on that will grip the scope well. I would suggest something like Seekins, Badger Ordnance, Nightforce, etc. [/QUOTE]
