[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1490359, member: 94491"] looking for good quality rings in 2 different configurations 1st would be pic rail/weaver rings to mount to pic rail base--this is a lightweight rem 700 mountain rifle (pencil profile barrel) the rings I had are not good and scope is slipping (as noted in another post)--I prefer lightweight rings but will deal with a few extra ounces if they wont cause scope slip, the current setup is with silver colored rings, I prefer to stay with silver colored as the barrel/receiver/scope are all silver right now (I think the bad ones I removed are weaver grand slam IIRC) 2nd is for a new x-bolt LR in 7 mag that is on it's way, putting a vx6-hd on it--I prefer to have black 1 piece rings/base for this rifle (like talley LW or DNZ) if possible Don't really need any canted base rail (20moa) but wouldn't totally turn it down either I also have a new scope lapping kit on the way to make sure the rings are true Yes i torque all my bases and rings to proper specs with a torque driver and use blue lock-tite what are your suggestions for "good quality rings/bases" without braking the bank--though I would pay a little extra to have the piece of mind that they wont slip in the field I have never had any issues with scope slipping in the past (before this incident with my '06) but it brings up the question of which rings have a high quality control process to make sure they are really "in-spec"--I have used leupy's steel rings, nikon P and M series mounts for AR's, weaver, talley, and few other IIRC what brand would you recommend ?
