My favorite rings pretty much regardless of price are those 4 screw Weavers. I lap them but they are pretty “straight” as is. Also they return to zero about as well as anything. I have only used the 1” mediums. They hold 14 ounce scopes without any issues. They didn’t budge on my old 7 1/4 pound 375 Ackley. I don’t use any heavier scope on my hunting rifles.
The thing about Weaver rings is that there are always 2 groups in these threads.
Those who like them and have used them without trouble on anything and everything including larger medium and big bore rifles without trouble and the other group who hates them but doesn't usually cite reasons other then they're ugly.
