I know this has been a topic before but i can't find anything through the search box. What are the best scope rings in your expertise opinion? I purchased a new rifle (haven't got it yet) and need to slap a scope on. I've used leupolds on some other rifles and also burris but wondering if there is anything else out there that might be better to use.
thanks,

Leupold :twocents:
-
Tally 1 piecers.
-
DNZ Dednutz
-
WARNE MAXIMA. they are the beefiest ones out there. strong hard steel. come in quick disconnect as well.
DNZ very uniqure for the market and a lot of common sence. look good as well.
EAW SCHWANK MONTAGE(swing mount) or EINHAWKMONTAGE(claw mount) the best return to zero removables on the market.
-
Another vote for Dednutz.
-
Badger or Farrel. Unless you don't want to spend $130 for rings.
I have used Leupold, Warne, DNZ, and they all work great. Any of the all steel good names brands will hold very well.
-
I like the Tally lightweights. Or the Leupold dual dovetails.
-
Talley, Warne or Deadnutz.

Warne

Talley, Warne or Deadnutz.
:yeah:
I own 3 sets of Warne (great heavy-duty rings), but my next set will be Talley or Deadnutz (so, I can avoid standard scope bases).
-
I mostly use Taley one piece light weights.
-
badger leupold weaver there is allot of great rings my fave is leupold mark 4 the strongest out there is my :twocents:
-
I've been very impressed with the Nightforce titaniums on my rum.
-
if you can find them, a company named buehler made the best mounts and rings until the mid 90's when the owner died. i found some used ones at bullseye in tacoma last year. i paid $108.00 with tax.
-
I like talley one piece and seekins
-
How about the Burris Signature rings? No more ring marks, without needing to lap the rings. Plus you can change the inserts to help zero the scope or give a little extra range. I've never seen a scope slip in a set of Signature rings.
If not the Burris rings, I always go with Warne QR.

i like the burris zee steel 30mm high's i put on my savage. the price was right. at the time thats what mattered.

I also like the Talley LW's, so far... One piece, light, seem to be pretty good rings. I've also had a set of original Talleys on my 257 for years, really like them, but they're heavy...

On a Weaver or Picitany rail on a target rifle.. Talley one piece. On a Weaver or Picitany rail on a hunting rifle.. TSR or Leupold rings. On a Redfield base, Redfield rings. On a Leupold base, Leupold rings. On a Ruger rifle with integrated base, Ruger rings. -Not to say that Leupold rings for Ruger are bad, but I've had great success with Ruger rings on Ruger rifles.
That said... For the budget minded, I've had Nikon Buckmaster rings holding my boys rifle/scopes (Nikon) to their respective receivers and they've taken a beating without issue. (no one beats a rifle in the woods more than a kid trying to earn his sea legs)
I don't know that there is a 'Best'. There might be best for a given installation, but I don't think there's a one brand/style/size that fits all.

Leupold :twocents:
cost effective and their customer service & Support rocks!
You dont have to pay $200,000 to get a straight shot, its your sope that matters and a clean rifle. not the rings.

I will agree that $200 is to much for anyone other than ultra serious, or people with a good income, but I know quite a few people who could not get it through their thick skulls that maybe, just maybe, their $400 scope was not bad, but those $15 rings were not good. I have seen rimfires bust apart cheap rings.
The most I have ever paid is $50 or so, but it is on my hunting rifle and I don't ever want to worry about it. The rings I really like, for lower powered rifles, and are a good cost are the Leupold Rifleman.

there comes a point where you need to have some MOA built into your base. you are not going to get good results with $50 ring and base setup expecting perfect long range results. my rifle wearing seekins stuff has the base bedded to the rifle and the rings are matched to the base by glen to exact tolerances. not too big of a deal untill you get way out there and run out of correction in your scope.
the talley LW's have everything going for them from a hunting standpoint.....they can't really gt much lighter, you could break half of the fasteners and still be as secure as a leuy or burris setup, there is NO chance of ring to base failure (I have broke a few windage adjustable setups on my lightweight magnums) tolerances are up to dave talley standards. and all that for less then the cost of a dual dovtail setup and way less weight.....a far cry from 200 un less it came with a burris fullfield 3x9

:yeah:

Leupold dual dovetail.
-
dead nutz on all my guns. and the magnum is bedded in epoxy rock solid.
-
Just ordered Dednutz for my new .308. Have had good luck with Weaver, Leupold, Burris. Never have had a problem specific to the rings.
-
Warne for sure.
-
I like the Burris signature rings. I find them to be very classy in appearance.
Those inserts make a lot of sense to me. They hold well. I have a rifle of 2 years with them and no problems so far...
-
i ended up with the leupolds. 8) i have multiple other rifles with leupold and have never had any problems.
-
I put Warne rings on my new Sako and added a 1/4 pound to the weight. They are "heavy" duty.
-
Redding or Leupold are what i use...unless i cannot GET them for a particular rifle..then Weavers.
-
Burris duel dovetail signature select. rock solid rings

I've got a pair of them on a contender pistol. They are holding up good. Usually I lap my rings but the insert takes care of that.
