[QUOTE="muleystalker, post: 2254581, member: 79944"] I have 7 of those Buehler micro dies and Balvar 8's, they are a great setup and I have killed many animals with them over the years as have my dad and grand father. I actually used to be a dealer for Buehler Products, I knew Maynard, Old man Buehler, he was a great guy, he lived about 17miles from me in Orinda, Ca. I met him when I was about 16 and drove over to his place and bought a set of rings and a Micro dial base for my new Mod. 70 300WM I had saved for. My dad gave me a Balvar 8 2.5-8 and its still on that gun today, 38 years later, and it still shoots great. I used to go see him once a month or so and got to be friends with him. I came close to buying his business back in the late 80's early 90's. His rings and bases where state of the art back in the days and were a thing of beauty, any high end rifle had his rings and bases especially your high end african and dangerous game guns especially if they were engraved. He had the patented seamless split rings and they had paper thin shims you would us a razorblades to shave them of and there bluing was impeccable. I still have some nw old stock Im holding onto along with a bunch of screw kits for them. [/QUOTE]
