    Tracking is number 1 , it's a gun sight first and a telescope 2nd .
    Go look at a bunch of stuff at some matches first and then spend the money . There is a lot more options now than even 5 years ago and 2k buys a lot of scope now .

    The big secret in rings and bases are EGW bases and Burris XTR rings .

    This... 100x this...

    I will through this out there as an additional point.

    Once you get into the higher end glass, personal preference will come into play.

    Some folks prefer S&B glass over other high end glass, and others prefer things over the S&B glass.

    If the feature set is correct and the reliability is there, which all of the higher end glass (S&B, Steiner, Kahles, Vortex Razor HD, etc) has, then what your eye prefers is the key.

    Me personally? It's really hard to enunciate, but the perception/image of the S&B reticle doesn't really work well for my eyes. I much prefer the image of my Steiners. My Razor GenII also appeals to my eyes better than the PMII that I had for a while.

    Buying quality glass is worth it.

    On the scope base, for something like this, is it worth it to go with one of the 20 MIL elevated bases, or better to stick with a flat one?

    Also, I see the EGW bases are very reasonably priced, which is nice.

    If there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to buy a gun, there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to vote.

    For legal reasons, that's a joke.

    Are these the rings you recommend:

    Are the inserts useful, or just a gimmick?
