Can't go wrong with a SPHUR mount! They make 34mm with built-in level, and different cant options. Of course, a S&B + Sphur is about 3x the cost of the rifle itself!
Your making good choices the scope matters more than the rifle, I have a pgw coyote and the only downside is you have no excuses if you miss it’s all you. Rings are personal but don’t cheap out Night force, Near manufacturing mag mount or sphur all good choices.

I had one my S&Bs in 34mm Quick Detach ARMS mounts - nice for quick switches between rifles, and always held zero well.

I don’t have the quick release version of the SPHUR, but with 4 screws to undo and then torque back down when moving my scope, the standard SPHUR is very fast to switch over and retains zero incredibly well, plus the built in level and clever levelling tool that ensures the scope is properly aligned in the mount.
Brilliant.
I have a Near mount with 15moa cant along with his rail of 45moa for a total of 60moa.
Keep in mind if you can get a combo with around 50moa of cant, you can make use of most of the elevation travel of either of those scopes and dial up to ~2000m without holdover.
Edit: I thought this was a .338 Lapua rifle but the same holds true for a smaller cartridge, the difference being the effective range. 50moa total elevation will still get you nearly full dial-up.
