Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Do Ruger rings return to zero?

I gotta say that I've never done an "off and on" check of Ruger's rings. But, I do have some rugers with their rings on them. Just looking at the mount design, and assuming a good scope, I can see no way that they wouldn't return to zero. But, I'd test that theory before using the system on a hunt. The only difference between them and QD rings is you have to use a screw driver to get the Ruger rings off. And I see Ruger's system as being superior to a QD set of rings for Ruger rifles.

DMB,

Its been mentioned on here before, but there is a small US company that makes a set of levers/screws that turn the Ruger ring-mounts into a true QD set-up.

I've no idea of the name of the company, but I bet soembody on here would know..

Regards,

Peter

That would be excellent. Ruger should do something like that from the factory. Anyone know the name of this company?

I would be interested in the name of the company as well. I have set up my Ruger rings as QD by having a set of Warne levers fitted to the cut down sloted knob. Have done plenty of on and off to test and they work well, at least for hunting purposes anyway. I did this so I could have a 4.5-14 and a 2-7 for differing situations.

Close enough for government work in my experience

I can take the scope off my 77/.357, to use the irons, and replace without a re-zero.

The variance isn't enough to worry about.
