I have narrowed it down to the type of rings I am going to get, I chose Seekins 30mm medium. Is there a good deal on them anywhere? The lowest I have found for them is 128.00.I was leaning towards EGW or badger but badgers are around 200 and EGW is never brought up, it always seems to be badger and seekins. also is the 4 and 6 screw ones that much better than the 4 and 4 screws?

Try SWFA also. I wanted to order a Seekins base from Liberty for months. Called and talked to Scott...... That was a couple months ago and never heard back when they might be in stock. His web site still shows all Seekins products as out of stock (just checked). Got the Seekins base and Aadmount rings from SWFA in a few days.

The Aadmounts are six screw rings which makes for a wider ring and more gripping surface on the scope tube. Is it needed, I doubt it on my .308, but I'm confident that my scope will never move.

I've bought several sets of rings and bases from Scott. He's first class to deal with.
The last 2 sets of rings I bought were out of stock at his place, and I ordered them from Primary Arms. They were in stock and shipped the same day.
They're first-class folks too.
 
Re: best place to buy

First off Seekins are excellent rings and they're top notch to deal with if something goes wrong (even if it's due to my own stupidity, haha). Very well made and I do not have any doubts about trusting them with my S&B.

I got mine from SWFA very quickly as LO was out of stock at the time. Honestly, you won't go wrong with either.
 
Re: best place to buy

Thank you so much for the referrals, guys. It is truly a blessing.

We did receive a nice box from Seekins recently but most of it went to longstanding backorders. I do have a set of unclaimed 30mm medium (which I offered to Tango 6, dibs) and 34mm high.

We charge $119 and $139 each, respectively, which is MAP, with free shipping.

We will be fully restocked with Seekins rails, rings, bottom metal etc in the very near future. Anything you might need drop me a line

Re: best place to buy

Another bump for AADmount. Competitive price & built like a tank. Jon A. was quick to respond to some PMs I sent as well. They are likely overkill...but I just don't give a damn
