Just that. Looking for lighter weight rings. I see Ruger listing them. I have the 77 tang model. Will go with no larger than 42mm obj. Cheers,Alan

They make rings for the integral ring mount system in aluminum? I didn't see any on ShopRuger. Only blued or stainless in gloss or the various matte finishes

Hey Ken, I’ve seen them before on eBay for the past year but only in High. I just googled them and now see them in medium which I like. Their is a site online , don’t know the name but it is run by veterans. They list out of stock. Part # 90410.

Never heard of them, but long overdue IMO. Just too much of a good thing.

I’ve never seen them either - only Amazon sellers listing stainless rings as “aluminum”

Been looking, they were listed on a few sites but all day out of stock. I will try to contact Ruger ASAP. If I find out something, will let you folks know.

The part number given is for a blued steel.Ruger ring.
Not the first time a seller has had an incorrect description.
And Ebay sellers tend to mess up often

Anyone know how the Alaska Arms rings compare in weight with the Ruger factory rings? Been considering them as an alternative but haven't pulled the trigger yet as they're pricey.

The Leupolds are a bit lighter and the lows a bit lower. They are what I use on my M77 and #1's.
