Is anybody shooting a Winchester model 70 featherweight classic with a leupold vx5 3-15×44 scope.
Just got the new scope from schmalts and have to get some new mounting rings. Hoping to keep it as low as I can. Have a leupold 3-9×40 1" tube on it now with leupold low rings. Has about 2 millimeters clearance but I've never had a 30mm tube and the 44mm objective thinking it won't clear the barrel with low bases. Thinking Talley, Warne or Leupold. It's a 300 win mag if that makes any difference. Probably have to get medium bases but anyone with first hand knowledge and advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
