    Question: Best 20 minute base......................

    I'm in the market for a very high quality base / ring set up for my Rem 700 long action, to mount a 30 mm scope. Just starting my research and, of course, Christmas is around the corner so I'll be doing this sometime over the winter - after Christmas. Seems my projects always take a back seat to my obligations. It's no fun being an adult, sometimes. Interested to hear your suggestions for some real long distance shooting. (7mm Rem Mag)

    Badger Ordinance if you can afford it.

    This one from Amazon has worked well for me on my Remington 700 (Short Action):

    Outerimpact Remington 700 Short Action Picatinny Scope Base with 20 MOA

    You will need the Long Action version which Amazon also sells:

    I have one on my Savage also.

    Settled on a Nightforce 20 MOA base & Burris XTreme Tactical Picatinney Rail 30 mm Riflescope rings (low 0.85 inches). Optics Planet gave 10% discount as soon as I mentioned the posted discount. Whoo hoo
