Anyone have any experience with this new package at SWFA with regards to the quality of the scope rings that are included. I know many have stated that the "old" versions did not hold well and were quickly changed out. Did the rings remain the same or did they get upgraded?

What rings used to come with them? These SWFA rings that they are selling with them now are a new products spec'd out and built for them.

Yeah, I know - that's what I wanted to figure out why they are always swapped out for stronger rings..? Seems to me if they're mated to be used with the system, they'd be good to use, but I wanted to verify this first.

I am still not sure what rings you are talking about. I don't know how it could be known yet that SWFA rings are being swapped out for stronger ones. They are brand new, like less than 6 months old.

I have one of their new SSALT AR mounts and so far am very happy with it. I think it is a great price performance ratio and they filled a good niche with it.
