RE: Removable scope rings?
I have Leupold quick release rings & bases on 2 of my muzzel loaders and 1 CF rifle ,they work great. I like that I can remove the scope to clean the ML .
On a guided hunt next year I will have 2 scopes for my rifle sighted in ,extra 1 just in case .
The only reason I don't have them on all my rifles is that I am cheap and whats on now works.
