Scope base & rings
Match the base to this action's footprint, then pick ring height for your objective diameter.
Riflescope
A 3–9x or 2.5–10x covers nearly all hunting distances and keeps weight down.

Muzzle brake or suppressor mount
This barrel is threaded, so check the thread pitch on the spec table before ordering.
