For $1600 they should come with a scope base as an option!! Weaver makes a bunch of one piece bases, the one for the 835 Mossy might work if the contour is right and the receiver can be drilled and tapped. If you want a steel base, Warne makes some that may work with some modification.
As for a scope, I have a Nikon Prostaff 2-7x32 shotgun scope on my .500S&W Handi-rifle, it works very well and has held up to some stout loads, 350gr XTPs at 2150fps 440gr CP at 1950fps and 700gr RRs at 1430fps.

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.
