Re: Scope Rings Suggestions? 700 LTR w/ 30mm scope
rmyers,
I am certainly no expert on metalurgy, or even rings for that matter. I will say that if a certain brand of rings is "good enough" for the well known forum members mentioned above, then they are more than well enough for my uses. All these guys and I'm sure many others on here shoot better, more often, at longer distances, with better equipment than I do and probably ever will. That's why I frequent this place..... to learn from people who have alot more experience, skill, & knowledge than I do.
I've heard what you mentioned above also, but can't remember where I read or heard it. I believe that one of the metals may be a little more sensitive to temp. swings - blazing hot to sub zero. How much? I can't answer that question.
I'm sure if you PM forum member Jon A he could explain it to your satisfaction, as I'm sure other members on here could as well.
Strictly just my opinion, but I believe that any of the better known name brand - not cheap rings out there whether they are steel, aluminum or even titanium will do the job just fine as long as they are correctly installed.
It's been my limited experience that it's not the rings, scope or rifle, but the "trigger puller" (me) that is most often the problem. Your results may vary.
