Seems this middle range is kind of splitting hairs. Is there really an appreciable difference between the 1.15 and 1.27 or does it come down to a preference of rings vs a one piece? If you’ve used both and strongly prefer one please weigh in I’m stuck in this middle range and don’t know which way to go. Yes I’ve read the stickied post but i can’t get that precise with the recommended methods I just know this is kind of the range I want. Don’t want to second guess myself with what these cost
 
Depends a little more on your scope and how big your barrel profile is than your stock/chassis but for reference here is my TT 525 with Hawkins one piece 1.27". If you have a straight/nearly straight barrel taper, go with the 1.27"

Thanks! I’ll be running a proof comp contour barrel, was curious about how much Adjustment there is and ergonomically what people like
