Rifle Scopes Good set of rings?

[captnmo]

I'm looking for a good set of 30mm rings for an AR-10. I've been looking at Burris XTRs or even their PEPR (single rail rings). I'd like QD rings but that's not primarily important. I know, I know, I get what I pay for but I really don't think I'll need to spend $110 on the rings when the Burris XTR go for around $60. I'm just wondering if there are any other good brands out there that I don't know about besides the usual ones. As always, thanks!

Sounds like you have already made up your mind, why even ask for our opinion?

I use Seekins only.

USMCj,
I'm naming Burris because it's what I know and see in my local retail stores. Not that I've made my mind up on it. I don't know a lot about it so that's what I have in my mind as to what a set of rings ought to look like and using those as a comparisons. I would like your opinion on whether or not my idea is correct. I ask your opinion because I figure a lot of people on here are knowleadgable.

if it's a cheap optic you are mounting, then use cheap rings.

If you are mounting a $1000+ scope to a $1000+ rifle, then what purpose is served by using cheap rings?

Seekins are top quality and clean looking while still being affordably priced. They have torx screws that tighten to the base so nothing portruding out which could snag to something.

These will mount a 30MM Falcon Menace 4-14. So descent, low-end tactical scope.

My Falcon rides in Seekins hardware. The nice thing is I won't have to buy anything when my USO gets here.
