30mm rings
 

I going to buy a 30mm-tubed scope and need good rings. I don' t really want Leopold rings that have the front dove-tail base. Since the rifle I' ll be mounting accepts both Weaver as well as standard drill-tapped bases please tell me your favorites, including links if you please.

Have you looked at the Leupold quick release set up. I have a set of 30mm rings and was impressed with them. I like the idea that the scope can be removed. Good luck

I guess your not getting much responses. It’s not a popular size. Power, I' m curious what type of scope are you buying that requires 30mm rings?

how about some nice talley rings?

Thanks trailer. I did check out those Leo. mounts/rings and they are pretty cool. Too bad they are $75. MIght still be an option though and they would be cool to have detachable scope for whatever reason.

I' m probably going to buy the Cabela' s Alaskan Guide 30mm scope, 4-12x50. Only $319 with limited lifetime warranty. Figure it' s worth trying them. That does NOT have an AO which I am trying to avoid yet still has the 12x magnification I want for the big open country here in E. Wa. where I hunt. With that combo I will get an exit pupil of 12 on the lowest setting while still a 4x magnification, and still retain a 4 on the max. mag.

Thanks Quilly. Do you recommend them? Do they make a 30mm set?

RE: 30mm rings
 

Power, I wish I would have paid $75.00 for the set. Up here the price for the set is nearly $200.00. That' s with the exchange. I like to remove my scope when I' m storing my gun. I find the scope get in the way in my gun safe...Sounds like your looking at a pretty good scope. Good luck in your purchase.;)

don' t own talley rings yet but are suposed top be the best of the best

RE: 30mm rings
 

Thanks all. I' ll keep looking around and see what I can find. Those Leopold one' s might not be a bad way to go but I' ll keep an eye out on the Talley' s too and see how they rate.

Power Try www.midsouthshooters.com and theywill have all the different types of 30mm rings .

Try the Burris Signature rings. I use them on my 30mm tube and IMO some of the best rings a person can get. The rings use a shim system, that works pretty slick.

RE: 30mm rings
 

If you going to do long range shooting, get the Burris set. They have some cool offsets so you will have maximum horizontal MOA adjustment if you have target turrits. If just hunting, just about most will do.

RE: 30mm rings
 

Power, it all depends on how much your 30 mm scope is going to weigh on what types of rings to buy. If it weighs more than 20 ounces stay away from the Leupold/Redfield front dovetail setup. You' ll have to go with a more sturdily constructed setup like Badgers,Near or something along those lines. If it weighs less than 20 then the Burris signature system is the most secure and will not mar your scope tube. I think Leupold Qrs are ok but nothing to write home about. If I were in the quick detachable market I would buy Talleys and not think twice about it.

Badgers. A freind of mine just put those things on his FN tactical. They weigh almost as much as my rifles:D

Just kidding. They are some serious rings for over 100 dollars
