    What bases are considered good?

    Hello folks

    Im looking to get a set up for my new rifle 308 savage 10FP sitting in a B&C Medalist varmint stock. I'm planning to pair it with either 6.5-20x44 Vortex Viper or 5-20x44 Nikon Monarch or 4-16x42 Monrach. So I'm considering to go with tested set up Burris signature zees rings and weaver bases. I like the idea of plastic inserts because it doesn't scratch the tube and does not need lapping of rings.

    Now the questions is should I get something better than weaver bases for example: Burris extreme tactical steel 2 piece bases or perhaps go with a 20moa rail? (I dont plan on shooting past 800 yards)
    Is it going to be more secure and provide better accuracy compared to weaver?
    Since I would consider this rifle not a cheap set up with somewhat of a decent scope and rings, I didn't want to cheap out on the bases going with weaver if they are not on par with my set up?
    At the same time I would not be comfortable spending $100 plus on the bases along unless, I absolutely had to.

    Or should I just go with Talleys one pieces base/ring for $45?
    Or there are better set ups rings/bases for less than $100 total?

    Thanks.
