Re: need help on savage 111
There are may options. First, you could go with a full one-piece rail that would allow you to use the same rings you have, and mount them closer together. Another option is to use a different style of two-piece bases. Either a standard front dovetail/rear windage-adjustable, or a dual dovetail. Regardless, you would need new rings to match the new style of bases. Both styles are offered in offset configurations that will allow you several different options of how to mount your scope. Go to some websites that sell optics mounts/rings and you'll be able to see some good examples. Personally, I'm a fan of burris or leupold bases, with burris signature rings. The rings have been extremely hard to get lately, but they are a great product. There are other possibilities, but those are the most common.

EGW base. Just need to know whether the action has a round rear action or a flat rear action and order the base accordingly.

+1 for EGW. It gives you many options for ring placement to accomodate different scope lengths.

You can get a extended front base that is what I have on all my 111s.
