I recently bought a Trophy Hunter XP and the first thing I did when I got it home was remove the provided Weaver bases and scope mounts. I installed Talley lightweight medium height mounts, since they have performed well on my other rifles and they are relatively inexpensive.
Even if you keep the factory Weaver bases and mounts, I recommend that you properly torque all the screws with Loc-tite and bore-sight the scope yourself. I have read too many stories about guys who cannot shoot a group with a new package rifle, only to discover that the scope is moving all over the place because it was not properly installed by the factory or retailer.
Have fun with your new rifle.
