You have three sets of rings for your new Tangent Theta 3-15x50 TT315P… which ones are you using?

[USMC22]

Option # 1 - SPUHR 4011 “Gap Mount” 1.102” Height

Option # 2 - Seekins 34mm 1.00” Height

Option # 3 American Rifle Company M10’s 34mm ~0.945” Height

Height is kind of a mute point where I have an adjustable cheek piece on my T2A but included it anyways… Unlikely to be used on multiple guns.

Note: I’ve used Badger Ordnance in the past almost exclusively. Looking to try one of the 3 options available to me and appreciate input on them.

They will all work well, my preference is ARC - the single bolt design just makes it so easy.

I have used Seekins in the past and I am currently using ARC, I have no complaints with any of them. In the future i will probably stay with ARC, just because of the simplicity.

Pick the one that works height wise. Theyre all fine choices

ARC

ARC seems to be leading the front here. I do like the simplicity of them. The 55 inch pounds makes me pucker though.

I see you are never again going to let an issue with your NightForce keep you from getting the performance you desire........

Im a contrarian



I sold my SPUHR and bought Badger M40A3 steels.

Jealous of your TT.

I love the ARC rings for the elegance and lack of slightly tilted top halves. As for the torque, remember it’s not the screw torque that matters, it’s the total clamping force.

Was an expensive itch to scratch but looking forward to it being put to good use. I’ll shoot you a pm on the rest.

There you go using logic on me…. Gets me every time

 

[USMC22]

Probably going with the ARC M10’s, they should be here next week. Going to hang on to the SPUHR and Seekins for now… they may end up in the classifieds to replenish my rifle build fund and offset some torque drivers… Whatever you do, don‘t talk to @pmclaine about gear. He says he’s contrarian but he’ll have you window shopping.

Seekins for me. Or the Spuhr for full baller mode.

I prefer two cross bolts to one and dislike the goofy hinges on the ARC. More points of possible failure.
Note - I also prefer wheels with 5 lug bolts to those with one central locking hub, so I may be strange. Or just like a belt and suspenders.

I’m no baller but get the logic

I hear what you're saying, yes - a hinge design does put a point of failure that other designs/traditional designs do not have, but I've been using ARC's for years and many others on the Hide as well and I am not aware of anyone ever mentioning a failure. The point is valid but the issue has not proved itself in real world use.

Seems like to dowel pin would be thicker than another screw ring after thinking about it. Will have them in my hands soon enough to check out.

The pins can slip, so just make sure they are centered before you tighten.

Will do! Read that before I think in another one of your posts doing some research on them!
