Aluminium are just fine matey, Tier 1 rings have a lot of meat on them anyway! They are not cheap but well worth it in my opinion.Ballistix wrote:Lol you’re right I guess they are fiddly to fit but it doesn’t bug me too much.
So to continue the thread theme and to expand it a little. I ordered the highest rings available from Warne but they are still around 3mm too short for my application. Looks like I need 20mm ring height. If I do indeed turn to Tier One or similar I would be straying from my steel metal rings obsession. It’s for a .308. Are aluminium rings just as ok to maintain reliable zero and not snap in half these days?
It is a for a target rifle not for dragging around hunting or across mountains on military service.
Cheers for feedback.
For example, when I set up my scope using Hawke rings, every time I fastened the screws on the rings I would not maintain a level (on the bubble level). I didn't have that issue with the Tier 1, they are solid!
