Same here no problems. Their lows are pretty low.


That's right Men, that said, I have them on two pre-64 feather weights, a 243 and a 270, they hold little gloss 2-7 Leupolds rock steady year after year, looks notwithstanding, I cant think of anything else more period correct for those two rifles.

Check out these Weavers with the screws on both sides of the base. Works better than the original.

Amen. I use them on nearly every thing now. The only time I don't is when I need "purdy," then it's Leupold DD.

Ha! I’ve got a tough looking old ADL ‘06 wearing a glossy Leupold 4X ridding in Leupold DDs. I’m feeling that I really should go through the hassle of mounting a set of Weavers now! The DDs look fancy but out of place............sorta like new alloy rims on an ‘71 International.

Any opinion on the Quad locks. I've used a few sets. The only issue I've had is the screw heads stripping...they seem a little soft so your driver head needs to fit just right or they can strip out. Otherwise they seem solid. Never had an issue once mounted and easier than the original to mount level.

I have a bunch of hunting rifles and have weaver rings and bases on all of them except three. The three which don't have Weavers are a Ruger 77 with Ruger rings, a Ruger No.1 custom with Talleys, and a Sako 579. Recently, I've used a few Weaver quad-locks. I don't like them as well as the old originals but they're a decent ring. GD

Quad locks are good rings but only available in medium height. Had them on a Savage 220 slug gun with no problems . Replaced them with low top mount rings which make for a better stock weld .
