I am looking for a set of rings that have a rail on the top of the rings. I really want an aluminum set and the seekins look really nice except they don't have the rail mount. An suggestions?

The rings going on a REM 700 / USO 30 MM / EGR straight base setup

Well Burris have the top rail but want to be sure I have a quality set of rings on my rig. I believe in the buy once method.
 
Re: Rings with rail on top

dude you're going to put a set of cheap burris rings around a USO? Rings and base are one of the most important pieces of the rifle puzzle. Do not skimp here or you will regret this. Many do this and later you will see a post from this ill advised, inexperienced shooters crying about broken rings, misalligned bases and ring etc.... Also steel is stronger, aluminum is weaker. Badger for sure

I agree 100%. I've had multiple ring problems and will never buy a cheap set again.
 
Re: Rings with rail on top

Any other rings makers I can look at with good quality?

Go with burris for $50 get everything I want but how is quality or badger (steel) and well over $200?
 
Re: Rings with rail on top

I have some of the burris rings and I think there a good buy for their price. However I don't have any of the more expensive rings like a badger, seekins, etc so I'm not sure what sets them apart.
