Good morning,

Well I finally took the plunge and I'll be picking up my first Savage rifle later this week, I'm a blue & wood sort of guy so it's a Savage Classic 14 chambered in 7mm-08 with the hinged floor plate as opposed to magazine.

I've read the bases are different on some Savage models because of the receivers being flat or round but I don't see any reference to that in any of the catalogs I have on hand. ? ?

I "believe" I want either a Leupold or Burris (not fond of Weaver) blue one piece dual dovetail with med. heigth rings, can someone give me a model number for the base on my new rifle ?

The reason I said "believe" is that I've also been kicking around my first two piece dual dovetail base. All my other rifles wear one piece dual dovetail bases and I can see where the pro on the two piece is ease of loading.....what's eveybody's opinion on one piece vs two piece bases ?

Thank you........Ike
