I agree. Forget quick-detach rings. I have never seen them be reliable. Bydesign, they move. If you mount the scope right, you'll never even consider using the sights. Any good make of rings and mounts will work as long as they are designed for your rifle. Maybe think about going with a lower powered scope.A2x7 or 3x9 will make it easier to pick up close targets at lower power, and, if you can't hit them at 9 power, I guarantee you won't hit them at 14x. Mount the scope low enough so you don't have to search for it when you shoulder your gun.
