Default been answered quite recently

but I put a weaver 61 on for bases and burris Zee rings and works just fine.
With a 40 mm objective u can use a low ring to keep scope down on barrel.

Tikka / Sako Optilock Rings and Bases get my ONLY VOTE !! But thats me.

Go with the low mount rings.

I have Warne fixed rings on mine http://www.warnescopemounts.com/fixed_rings.html. I've been happy with them so far.

Leupold bases and rings are strong and reasonably priced.

I've got a set of Leupold matte bases for the T3, let me know if you go that route I'll make sure it's cheaper then the store . The Zee rings are also a good affordable option.

Maybe not "good and affordable", but definately very good. Near MFG base with Leupold MK4 rings, all the light weight version. Would have went with Near rings but were backordered and I had a hunt to go on. Nicest set up I have.

I went with Talley combined ring base, just sent them an email for your gun and scope, and they will tell you the model to buy, very lite and strong.
