Can't beat American Rifle Company M10 rings, only rings I'd run aside from a Spuhr Mount.

i was looking at those M10 but thought they might have a chance of getting flimsy due to all the hinges!, but maybe that’s just me overthinking. What about the vortex Precision? Are they durable I’d like to get some feed back on those
Vortex precision matched are Seekins rings and are an excellent choice.
The last set of 35mm rings I bought were Badger and are very high quality but as allready suggested the M10 rings are a solid choice as well.
Just pick from any of those three with the physical dimensions and weight you like best and they will serve you well.
If you had to go with lightweight and durable is there any recommendation you would have?
Buddy was mounting a set of 30mm TPS aluminum rings tonight, and torqued them to 65in/lbs per specs on the TPS site. Rear ring went on without any issue, but the front ring snapped off where the cross member locks into the ring (opposite of the hex nut).
Anyone dealt with TPS customer service before, and what should we expect when we call tomorrow? Also, has anyone seen this type of failure with TPS rings?
Run Barrett Zero Gaps in 35mm. Used their 30mm as well. Light weight , good holding power and easy on the scope tube's finish. I have a pair of 34mm Vortex rings, smooth surfaces, decent bearing surface for good grip, solid construction but light and dual torx bit connect to rail. On par with anything I have used. Think you can't go wrong with any above mentioned offerings, something for every budget, caliber/scope pairing, look and need.
Thank you for the info, I appreciate it!..sounds like the vortex are more like what I’m looking for!
And also it keeps me from putting my 18”” pipe-wrench on there to torque break!..ha!?
Then the Vortex/ Seekins rings would be a great suggestion.
I'm running a set of 34mm Seekins on one of my rifles and the way they attach to the rail is seamless if you want something less likely to snag although not really an issue or just for the aesthetics of the design.
I started running the Vortex Precision rings earlier this year and they have done very well for me, no hesitation buying them again.
Thanks for the feed back! I appreciate it.
It looks like sportoptic has the best deal on them.
I believe the 35mm Vortex/Seekins are discontinued. I would've used those for my Leupold MK5 3.6-18 but I ended up going Badger due to the previous being discontinued. Haven't mounted them yet but they look very good.
The Seekins rings are great, but I use ARC M10 rings and probably will until I die, or until they stop making them... whichever comes first. Stupid easy to set up, and solid as fuck!
