I currently use millet and leupold rings. I see rings that are 100-200 bucks are they worth it?


Dang man, they are all pretty much bullet proof now days if they are made by a reputable company. If you want tough as nails and fairly inexpensive, you can go with the weaver mounts and rings or the leupold QRW or PRW's, Talley steel mounts and rings, Warne steel mounts and rings, TPS, Leupold DD's, S&K, Conetrol's. I use most styles and it really comes down to personal taste or what is asthetically pleasong to YOU:

I use the leupold QRW mounts and Rings (Quick detachable QRW) on my 375 H&H:

Leupold Dual dovetails mounts and rings on my 300 wsm:

I run steel TPS on my FN PBR XP, which are excellent rings and tough as an anvil:

Warne steel rings on my CZ 550 American 9.3x62mm:

.......but like one poster said, the majority of the time you can get by with the talley lightweights and call it a day. I use the hell out of the talley lightweight's (aluminum) and I can attest to their strength...Some guys don't like the looks of them but they have kind of grown on me and some of my rifles grin:
