All - I need to give a Christmas wish list to my in laws and am currently saving up for a Model 70 in 7MM-08. I will be hunting deer from stands at ranges from 50 to 200 yards. I think a Leupold VX-3i 2.5-8 x 36mm is what I want. I will be asking for bases/rings for Christmas list.
What do you think about the Leupold QR base (with lever) and low rings for this application? My intent is that I can get two sets of rings and when I get into pinpoint accuracy reloading I can use a higher magnification scope (maybe 12-16x) that I can pop on the QR base. Even though I plan to re zero and test each time, that sure beats changing scope and rings every time from a work perspective!
