This is just a quick post on scope rings/mounting systems. I have used countless Weaver bases, picitinny bases, one piece ring sets, 2 piece systems etc. I have had to shim and lap rings/ bases as well.
So I bought a rifle that the scope mount was a bit off using a bunch of internal adjustment to properly zero.
Rather than shimming the base, I decided to try the Burris signature rings. Well, they worked great and from now on that is the only two piece ring set I will ever buy. The polymer inserts not only allow you to adjust your scope by up to 40 moa, you don't have to tighten them down as much because the friction of the polymer is better than just steel on steel, and they won't scratch the scope.
The XTR rings are not that pricy compared to other high end rings and it makes a 20 moa mount unnecessary. The rings have not moved in 500 rounds from a .300 win mag so I'd say they hold well. I don't work for Burris, but when I find a good product, I will promote it.... likewise if i find a crappy one (hornady brass in a .338 lapua for example) I share that too.
One draw back though is that if u want a quick release set, they don't have a 1 piece signature base.
