Default Best Rings for a CVA Optima

I recently bought the CVA Optima Kit from Cabelas and while the price was fantastic, the rings/bases that came with the kit are horrible. I've looked around and it seems that there aren't many choices of rings out there. Can anyone suggest any? Thanks for the help guys.

I recently purchased the Thompson CenterMaxima base and rings from Cabela's for my CVA Optima Pro. I like them alot. Theylook very sturdy and seem well made. I'd recommend them although they're on the pricey side.

What do you guys think of the CVA factory rings for the Optima? I see that they have the medium rings & the higher rings which you can see your iron sights through. What do you guys think of these?

I have the factory CVA rings on my Wolf and have no problems with them. If you don't like the rings, you already have the base right? Look around for a better set like Weaver. Just make sure what ever brand you buy they fit a "Weaver" type base.
