Very nice Firearm and Great Varmint Cartridge!

I thought so too ;). So @Coyote Shadow Tracker you seem to know as much as anyone about varmint rifles, way more experience than I will ever have. I want to mount a Swarovski Z 5 3.5-18x44 here, and the Sako rings/bases seem a little odd. I have always used Talleys, but hear good things about Burris and Leupold bases to fit the dovetails on this rifle. Don't care for rails. Thoughts? Obv don't want to tap or anything. And looked at Near, sure they are great, but $620 o_O
