Hello -

Just purchased a new Axis II in 30-06 for deer hunting next fall. $369 (no shipping) plus the extension on the Savage $60 rebate made it too good to pass up. It came with a Nikon 3-9x40 BDC scope. I would like to swap the bases and rings and go with either

Talley Lightweights - do I need the extended high or medium rings so that I won't have problems with the bolt handle touching the scope?
or
Combination of Weaver Extended Multi Slot Base (0 MOA) and Grand Slam steel rings, Medium or High so no bolt handle issue?

Can any one share pictures of either in use?

Thank you,

Frank
