Scope Ring Recommendation?

I hаνе a Redfield 3×9x40mm rifle scope fοr a Remington 700. Whаt іѕ a gοοd сhοісе fοr scope rings? I hаνе a steel UTG Weaver one-piece mount.

   www. natchezss. com they have several in steel. My recommendation,I have Leupold scope and rings Beuhler adjustable 1 piece mount. Use all steel.

   I been a fan of Burris Rings, especially the signature series, though I have a Weaver Rings on on one of my coyote guns.

   Weaver bases and tip off rings are pretty handy. You can remove scope change out for another or use iron sights.
   Put scope and ring set back on and pretty much return to zero or pretty close.
   My biggest complaint is you are using the scopes internal adjustments for setting wind age and elevation. Of which viewing/aiming will be degraded lots if you had to turn the dials lots to sight in zero. A property of light passing through glass off set to far off optical center. And this would be due to bases or rings not lining up with firearms bore either by faulty install of mount on rifle or some manufacturing fault at the factory.

   I prefer standard mount/ring sets as the rear ring can be used to set wind age and then use only the scopes other internal adjustment to set elevation. Setting scope zero in this manner keeps light traveling through scope in a straight line through or much nearer optical center The one drawback of this system is removing the scope off rings , then removing the rings. And scope will have to be re zeroed when mounted on rifle again.

   With any base and ring system now-a-days, just about anybody with some mechanical ability can do the job. But if it goes badly, turn to a gunsmith to correct and finish the job!

   If you have like way to much money to spend on this project buy a set of Holland and Holland bases and rings and have a gunsmith machine bases for both wind age and elevation thereby maintaining optical lens elements alignment in scope.

   Two ideas here.
   mounting scope in alignment to firearm bore
   retaining optical alignment in scope to help with viewing/aiming especially in most opportune hunting/shooting times at dusk and dawn.

   Now in the 21st century you have a large selection of scope mounting options, all of good quality. Unless you try and go with some of the cheaper stuff made overseas.

   Warne rings and bases. No shift in zero as yet.
