I personally would recommend the Nikon Monarch or the Bushnell Elite 4200.  Both are great scopes and both have some very nice features that makes each one a very suitable scope.

I can't offer comment on the DD rings, but I do use Burris Signature Zee rings on my 45-70 shooting hot handloads with a fairly heavy scope mounted on it. Recoil is in the 32-35lb range which is more than what I see the 300win mag rated at, and I've had no problems with the rings.
