Re: What rings to get?
Another vote for American Rifle Co. I am using the M10 and will never use anything else ever again.
I have used; Leupold MK4, Badger, Seekins, TPS, IOR, Vortex. I choose the American Rifle Co. Just my opinion.

Badger or Seekins but I have gone exclusively now to Badger. Heavy but perfect every time.

Like a few others, lots of good ones out there but the very best are the ones from ARC with everything that I've experienced.

Re: What rings to get?
Why not go big and get a Spuhr mount?
If not spuhr, I would go with Seekins. What I'm currently running and they have been excellent.

Re: What rings to get?
+1 on Seekins. More money won't get you better rings than Seekins. I used to use badger and Nightforce.

Re: What rings to get?
Why so many of you like to spend so much on rings is beyond me. Im on my 3rd set, these rings outperform everything else out there, mostly in price, but are as sturdy as anything out there.

Re: What rings to get?
I guess it gives me that peace of mind if my rifle takes a hard knock or a fall. I don't want any doubt the next time I pull the trigger. Why spend $1000+++ on glass and skimp out on rings when it may only save you $70-$100?

When talking about TPS AL rings most of us have seen the pictures or experienced first hand the shit-grade quality AL they use and seen the broken ring failures that the company won't back up.
That's why we spend more on rings.

Re: What rings to get?
I only use steal rings on my rifles and my preferred are badger and letup old mk 4 rings I rally believe that what you pay is what you get
I also believe that the part that gaps the interface between the rifle and the optic is the most important part since it is the weakest link
Good luck with your choice

Re: What rings to get?
I haven't used a lot of different brands like a lot of folks here. So take this for it's true value.. <$0.01.
My first rifle where I actually bought quality stuff; I purchased L Mk4's. After taking a look at them, I sent them back to Midway and traded them for NF. The NF rings fit to the rail with a square surface to square surface. That just made better sense to me. I've stuck with NF w/o issues.

Because not everyone spends $ 1000 + on glass.
