Who you dinging ? Conetrol or SK ? Either is rock solid, has windage on both bases as are actually good looking, unlike Talleys that look like a C clamp sitting on your rifle.
Being from PA, I doubt your rifles spend days in a saddle scabbard being bumped by trees, brush or having a horse take a slide down a snow covered screed hill.
Heck, steel Weavers are as solid as Talleys, no more ugly and a lot cheaper.
Finn used them on his M-70 375 H&H in Africa for decades !
Solid & good looking:
