[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 1022422, member: 34084"] If weight is not an issue, I strongly prefer steel rails. I've seen many cases where rings damaged aluminum rails under recoil. That's usually because the person who installed the rings made a mistake. Nevertheless, mistakes can happen with anyone. Steel rails are pretty much bullet proof. In either case, I recommend properly bedding the rail to the receiver, unless your rifle has a single radius of curvature for both front and rear mounting positions, like on a Savage. [/QUOTE]
