Rifle Scopes Badger 34mm USMC rings vs Larue LT120

[PraetorianArms]

So I'm currently in the process of building a non-spec M40A5 field rifle.

Its close to spec, but I've made a few tweaks, and now I'm considering another.

I like the idea of the badger rings because of the 6 torx screws to hold the tube, but I recently watched "Art of the Precision Rifle" and saw how they removed a scope from one rifle (using the LT120) and placed it on another and made a shot immediately after, culminating in hitting the target.

So my question is this: Is there anything I would lose in the trade-off going with the LT120 over the Badger rings? Has anyone used one or the other and what are your thoughts?

thanks.

The rings are the better option. Unless you have a need to regularly move the scope around then standard rings are the best.

For the money and weight I'd look into Seekins rings as well.
