There is no way that I can put a scoped rifle in my safe.  Just will not fit unless I don't use a position in the row behind it which I do not want to do.  Anyone make a set of rings that can be easily removed but which will hold their settings?

OK.  But with the Savage 12 BTCSS I'm going to need something else.  What, exactly?

QR rings and bases have no place on a precision rifle. Use the next row in the safe if you have to, that's a goofy damn excuse for a crappy mounting system.

In all fairness, a Savage 12 is hardly a $3000 precision rifle...but your point stands.

If your rifle has a picatiny rail, use standard attachment rings. It takes 10 seconds to loosen the screws and a minute to re torque them to the appropriate value. Zero should be checked after each re install..

Where, pray tell, does one find a $400 safe that isn't made of tin?

The rifle, without a scope, will cost about $700.  Another Fort Knox safe would be around a lot more than $400.  Mine, if I remember correctly, was about $1000 15 years ago.  So the room in the safe argument is, I think, a valid one.  So, I like the quick release rings.  What else do I need with this rifle, bases maybe?  If so, which ones?

If I absolutely, positively had to have QD capability, Talley would be the only option I would consider. Even at that, dont count on return to zero in any reliable fashion.

Its just a bad idea all around.

Father's day at sports authority?
The premise stands though.
