If you're not burning through batteries in your headlamp,...you're doing it wrong.

There are many good choices but lately I've been using Warne Mountain Tech rings on several of my rifles.

For aluminum rings, Seekins are the best I've used. When they were $55-60 a set, I liked the Vortex Pro Series, but now they're $80.
For steel rings, I've been using Warne Horizontal Maximas.
Thoroughly enjoying Alaska since 2001.

For pic rings, APA and Seekins...depending on how low is too low.

Ditto. If the rifle manufacture supplies their own (Ruger), I'll use those. Otherwise, I try to go with Seekins.

Weaver Sure Grip. everything from .223 to lightweight 3006,300,338,375 magnums. Never an issue, course I don't use scopes
that outweigh the gun.

Regular Weaver rings. The original QD ring, lightweight, have never had one fail. They just require a little patience when setting up.
Talleys are nice too.

Leupold DD's, Burris Zee rings, Burris XTR's, Leupold PRW, Nightforce ultralights. AR's get Burris PEPR. They all work great, but are for different applications. "Best" is always subjective, but there should be different categories IMHO. Like for instance: 22lr, precision rifle, AR 15, hunting rifle, lightweight hunting rifle. etc. etc..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

DNZ if the spacing is right for the scope I'm using and Burris Signature Zee rings for adjustable spacing.

Burris signatures/XTR signatuires for most applications. I just tried UM Tikka rings for the tikka dovetail and they look nice, but I am just starting with them.

I had two different UM sets that wouldn’t hold zero. The tikka dovetail is just too shallow. I’m sure for most applications they are fine, but a known good swfa was getting 6” horizontal shift with chest high drops onto hardpacked snow. Everything was tight and degreased. Swapped out to picatinny rail and volquartsen rings and groups stayed small and round with the same scope/rifle
