Optics suggestion

[mrmojo32]

I have a buddy who has a 30-06 bolt and is looking for the best base and rings for his rifle. Does anyone have suggestions on what to use that are good quality?

Also he has been looking at scopes and wants to shoot in the 600 yard range and wants to know if the BR Reticle is worth it.

Thanks!

Tell him to get a 20 MOA one piece base. NightForce is what I like but EGW has them for cheaper. Rings Leupold Max, NightForce are good. Badger or Seekins are more robust. I like Seekins personally.

I pretty much just use Seekins bases and rings on all of my guns now. Extremely well built, precise, and enough surface area to hold a scope with 15 in/lbs on each screw and not give under a .338lm recoil. At 33% cheaper than the Badger, USO, and other offerings they can't be beat in my opinion.

So far I have had excellent results with my Viper PST mounted to my DNZ (Deadnutz) base. While at my range my hand sliped down the side of my gun while I was locking down the bolt and barely touched my 10 ounce trigger and gun went off. Gun jumped off table and hit concrete. The gun landed upside down on the scope pretty much. I (almost in tears) picked my gun up, put it on the bench and shot it...nothing changed. I am sold on DNZ and Vortex optics for sure now. Also just to mention the base/ring I have on my gun is the tactical version not the standard hunting.

If you have a long action Remington, i have a Seekins base for sale.
