I'm not so sure about that...

I just scoped a late model 99A in .250-3000 and after checking in on 2 different Savage websites (you can search for my posts) I went with the 2-piece Weaver mounts in low rings due to:

* Lower weight

* Lower height

* Lower cost

* Better looks (Is subject to various opinions)

* Just as accurate & solid (Might be subject to opinion; but if I hit the scope/mount that hard, I'm doing something wrong...)

I'm convinced the lowest Leupold Mounts & Rings (which I have used on all my other scoped rifles, by the way) still would have resulted in a scope that was mounted 1/8" higher, with more weight; plus the risks it blocks easy access to the open bolt.

Take a look at "how low you can go"...



Your mileage may vary, and I'm no expert; but that's my view.

Good luck.
