Alright, I just picked up my left handed Savage 10FLP today, and I already have a Tasco SuperSniper 10x42 ready to mount. I've gone back and forth over scope mounts the whole time I was scrounging up the money for this one. It will be used 90% range, 10% (if that) hunting from a barn loft.
I ruled out ARMS, Badger Ordnance, etc... I just don't need that much mount, and I didn't want to spend another $200 on this budget-minded 500 yard target rifle.
So I think basically I have decided to go with Burris Signature rings, and a Burris 2-piece base in either the Standard (windage screws in rear, dovetail front) or the dual-dovetail. (BTW, Burris is the ONLY company I could find besides Weaver so far that makes mounts for the new AccuTrigger'ed Savage)
But what are the advantages to them?
I assume Dual Dovetail might be a stronger base, but has no windage adjustment. Do I need to adjust windage on a base? Climbing through that tiny little hole in the floor of the barn loft might cause a few bumps along the way, so do I need the extra strength?
Thanks for all the continuing help... I may actually get outa this one without any purchasing regrets!
