I made my decision and went for walnut and blue in 25-06 with a heavy bbl. I need some help with optics and bases I'll probally go with Warn rings and a Nikon scope. What is the largest Objective that will fit that BBL.

Thanks Mike

It depends on the height of the rings. I have Leupold VXII's 3x9x40's on most of mine and then on 3 I have 56 mm Objectives.

I was thinking 3x9x40 on med rings but I wasn't sure about the heavy BBL I was looking on natchez for bases but didn't see a listing for the Encore heavy BBL does anyone have a part #. I cant get onto midway.

A heavy barrel makes no difference to the scope rings. The height of the rings is determined by the scope objective Dia. Up to 40mm you can use medium rings, above 40mm you will probably need high rings.
Midsouth Shooters Supply sells a one piece Redfield base, their part No. 028-47173.
