Jack,
What rings and base would you recommend for the Leupold VX-1 or VX-2 for a Marlin 45-70? I’m leaning toward sticking with Leupold and getting these:
Leupold QR Marlin 1895/336 1-pc
Leupold QR 1-in Low
Thanks man!

I would not fault that choice at all. I WOULD likely step up to the VX-2 with a harder recoiling round like the 45-70.
My rule is I want the lowest mount that works I can get. Sometimes some low mounts are too low and you need mediums, but with amazons easy returns it isn’t a big risk.
When teachers complain about having to buy things like tissues or crayons, I immediately think about the $11k+ I have spent on tools and tool storage for when I was an auto technician.
