Hi folks, just entering into the world of hunting and need some advice. I just purchased a Remington .30-06 700 ADL and am attempting to mount a scope on it. The person at the gunshop sold me on Burris Trumount bases (front dovetail, rear windage adj.) with Leupold rings. However, I get on line on another forum and someone said that was the worst possible scenario because the setup would cause undue torsion on the scope barrel causing the seals to leak and that the windage screws would loosen with time requiring constant rezeroing. Instead he suggested Weaver style bases with Warne Quick release rings (since I have steel sights on the gun). So now I'm totally confused. Should I mount the rings that I bought at the store, return them or what??? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
