      For my lightweight mountain rifles I used the Talley lightweight base/ring combo. One set on a Kimber Montana and one set on a Tikka T3 Lite. On the Kimber, I have the Leupold 2-8 - I think it is VX3? - because it is light. The Leupold custom shop added some dots in the reticle for holdover for my 260 Rem load.

        I heavily considered the VX3i 2.5-8x36, but all my suppliers only had it in a duplex reticle and no CDS... didn't want to have to pay $350 for the scope then send it in to Leupold custom shop, pay another $90 for a moa turret, $100 for a different reticle, wait 4-6 weeks, get it, confirm all my drops with that specific scopes turret system, pay another $80 for a CDS turret cap from Leupold, and wait another 4-6 weeks for that... If it had been offered with the CDS or a better reticle, that would have been my choice.
