Sendero II scope mount screw size?

[MountainMariner]

Just ordered a Sendero II in 300 Win Mag and need to know if the mount screws are 8-40. Trying to order my base and rings. Thanks.

Nope, same as every other remington. 6x48

I'm debating between the Sendero II and XCR Long Range--300 win mag, as well. Other than exposed stainless barrel on Sendero, is there any other major difference between the two? Why does the Sendero have the "tack driver"reputation?

Thanks. Buying a Near Alpha Mount or Ken Farrell FG-Force base and rings. Can't seem to make up my mind on that detail. Mounting a Nightforce NXS 5.5x22 50mm. Any help with making up my mind would be appreciated. I have Farrell bases and rings already on a few other rifles, but I am leaning toward the Near Alpha for the Sendero mainly because it just looks good.

No experience with either of those rings/bases. I've always used Seekins hardware. If you have had good luck with what your using or like the way another brand looks on your rifle go with it. I have no doubt both Farrell and Near have quality hardware.
