Hi everybody, this is my first post on this forum. Bucky

Anyways, I just bought a new Savage 10fcp-k and I am looking to put a 20 moa base on it and was also thinking of these rings http://swfa.com/Leupold-PRW-30mm-Rings-P1219.aspx

and was wondering if they are any good, I want to make sure that are not going to move on me, I`m on a budget so I`m trying to get the best for the money.

I am also wondering if it is going to make much of a difference in the brand of base I go with.

I plan on getting a Super sniper 10x42 or 16x42 scope.

what are your thoughts on this>?

Welcome to O.T!
 
 I have a pair of them in Low (????) Height, 30mm. They are very well made and nicely finished. I would have no problem recommending them for use on any Weaver or Picatinny base system. They probably wouldn't be as strong (or heavy, or expensive) as TPS, Seekins, Badger, etc. but should be just fine for all but extreme use and abuse.
 
 Edited to double-check what I have; they must be Mediums, not Lows.

What height of rings would I need if I went with the leupold or Tps if I use a Tps 20 moa base?

I plan on using Butler Creek caps also, so it would have to clear with those and the super sniper 10x42 scope.

 Whoops. I think I erred when I posted that mine were Low Height.
  They must be Mediums, because the SWFA store doesn't show a Low available in that ring in 30 mm, (and I got them from them.)
 I think the Medium would work on a TPS base with the Super Sniper, but I'm not positive.
