Thank you all for your input.

I ordered a Weaver rail Model no: 48347 and called weaver for torque settings, and they recommended 15-20 inch lbs.

For scope rings - Weaver Cross Lock rings Model 49305, they recommended 10-15 inch lbs. for the top half, and 35 inch lbs. for ring to base.

I have just mounted the base with a little loctite 222. I know some recommend 242, but I had a hard time removing the base on my 10/22 last time. Waiting for the rings now.
