Re: Mounts for 114 Classic
This is my first post on this board so take it easy on me. ;D
I've owned a Savage 116 Weather Warrior w/scope bundle for a few years. The scope left me wanting more so I purchased a Nikon 4-16x42sf and mounted it to my rifle using DNZ's one piece scope mount (#14200).
At first I torqued the rings down to 15 in/lbs but the scope moved forward in the rings after the repeated sharp recoil of the 270WSM round (and slipping on a rock). After using a 25 in/lbs torque driver there are no more problems. 8) Ded Nutz mounts have a very consistant finish, and are unusually robust with only 3 parts and 8 hex cap screws, almost like welding the scope to the rifle :), and on a stainless receiver the matte black rings are a good transition to the matte black scope.
I’m not sure how the Ded Nutz matte black would look on a higher end rifle like yours, but I’m confident it’ll work great and I recommend it for that purpose.

I have always thought these were by far the best looking factory rings available-

Hany is a great guy to deal with also. I think they would complement your rifle nicely.
