    Need some advice


    Hey everybody,

    I just purchased a Savage Model 12 Benchrest .308 with a Nightforce NXS 5.5x20 scope and Nightforce rings. I need to know what you recommend for a scope base from a manufacture and model perspective. I would like to be using my rifle to shoot anywhere from 100 yards to 1000 yards in the future.

    Thanks.

    EGW HD model is my go-to base.

    Have almost the same setup. Used a NF rail.

    That;s a high end setup. No sense in putting a weak link in the chain.
    I believe I'd spend the coins on a good steel rail from Nightforce or Badger Ordnance
