I am curious what your opinions are on rings, either or 1 or 2 piece for my Howa 1500 hcr with an Athlon Midas tac would be? I am on my 2nd set of 1 piece rings and am not very satisfied. I was looking at the Vortex pro’s with the 4torx head bolts. Anyone have factual pro’s and cons of 1 piece vs. 2 ?
Rifle Scopes Decent rings for $100 or less?

2 piece Vortex PMR's (made by Seekins Precision) sell on this site frequently for around $100 and are tried and true.
Thousands of people use them without issue and without lapping.
You will occasionally read about some joker citing some type of slippage, and rosins are brought into the discussion. If you torque them to the recommended values I think it is highly likely you will be happy with their performance and price point.
I have not heard much feedback on the Pro models, they may be too new to market, but are destined to be popular at that msrp.

Nothing wrong with the Burris signature tings with inserts. I've got at least ten scopes mounted in them and have never have an issue. I also like the fact that they don't leave ring marks on expensive scopes.
I said that too but awhile back there was a thread where I was corrected with supporting pictures that the two were actually different. Full lug vs half the width etc. actual differences.
I like the Steiner h series and I have some of the low end night force skinny ones I want to try out soon too.
Double check yourself against forum rules. Don't want you to get banned for trying to sell without having your 100 posts or paying the selling buy in.
Another vote for Seekins, after reading through as many threads as I could find on the subject I bought a set of lightly used from a member here.
They are very good rings and the fit and finish is excellent.

I appreciate the heads up. Complete ignorance on my part. Hadn’t even looked at the sales rules.
Thanks

Hard to beat the seekins/vortex rings. I would definitely not trust buying them on EBay though . Too any fake Chinese crap being sold on there now.
Last set that I bought was through Optics Planet, they have 20% off sales all the time, which puts them real close to the $100 mark

There’s a set of low Seekins on the px now.
Can’t recall what size.
I’m a fan of seekins as well.
