I purchased a SWFA 3-9 MIL today (my first SWFA) during the sale for my daughter's Weatherby Vanguard 243 so she can start learning to dial yardages. The SWFA will be replacing a Burris Fullfield BDC scope with 1" tube. I originally thought her rifle had a pic rail but just went back and looked and it has the Talley Howa 1500 rings in Low.
I know the Talleys are prob considered fairly entry level so looking for something maybe a little more robust for the new SWFA scope with 30mm tube.
Right now I'm considering either of these: Warne maxima 2 piece scope base or Howa/Vanguard SA Mountain Tech Tactical Rail
As far as the rail/base goes, any reason why I should go one over the other?
For rings I'm looking at the Warne Moutain Tech Low rings: Warne Mountain Tech 30mm, Low Matte Rings
What's the consensus on the Mtn Tech rings? Do ya'll think the Low rings would work fine with the SWFA? I have UM low rings on my Tikka rifles so not very familiar with these but I thought I remember seeing guys like @Formidilosus being a fan of the MTN Techs. Could be mixing them up with something else though.
Any other base/ring combo I should be looking at instead? Not trying to spend too much $ but want something rockslide approved to hold zero. Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks guys!
