RE: Lapping? Reaming? Talley Mounts?
Oh Man, You guys need to try the Burris Signature Series rings. They have plastic inserts for self aligning. The 30mm even have 10 minute offset inserts for those really long shots. I know you're gonna get scared hearing the "Plastic" insert but believe me they work very well. I havea seton a gun with a lot of recoil and have no problems.
Yeah of which the steel is pot metal just watch pieces of the lugs shear as you twist them in place and they are bulky to boot. If your going to buy bulky rings just buy Tactical rings. Now if that Burris ring was made of the same material as a Sako Optilock then you would have said something. I have never had a scope slip in one of those ever.

Old Elk hunter you haven't even tried the Buris Sig. Zee rings rings from the sounds of things. Don't knock something unless you have the facts. These are Weaver style. If you tried to twist them into place you have a serious problem. They slide on like a Picatinny rail. Sure there are better rings out there but for the money these are pretty nice. If you are looking for the best go with the Badger Tactical rings. I'm just saying instead of spending $150 for Badger you can use the Burris and they will not mark up any scope you put into them. Oh yea did anyone say self align no lapping needed.

The ones Iuse are labled "Custom Steel Rings-Signature ZEE Rings-30mm Extra High Matte Black-420585". It's clear to me that I have no Idea what I'm talking about so I'll let it up to you experts. I'm sorry to intervine.
