Default Sako or Leopold Rings?

Just bought a Tikka T3 300wsm going to put a Leopold 3x9x40 on it. I haven't decided on rings, but would like to use the factory dovetail.
I now their is alot of tikkas out there, what is every one using? Leopold? Sako - optilock? Warne?

Default rings

I looked at Warnes , nice set-up but heavy. I have had good luck with Weaver bases epoxied down ,topped with Burris z rings

X2 on the Weaver bases and Zee rings, minus the epoxy. Haven't noticed any problems so far, and I'm using them on my T3 Hunter in .338.

Default Rings & Bases

I use Sako / Tikka Optiloks on all my Sako and Tikka T3 rifles. Never lost a zero setting. Pricey yes, but worth it in my books to hold my Leupold VX 2 & VX3 scopes.
