B square sport utility rings are a great value....but.... - Bsquare Sports Utility Series Rings

These rings are similar in design to Leupold PRW rings....they will minimize ring marks on the scope by "folding/wrapping" around the scope tube when they are tightened....look closely at the design, the angle of the split on the ring...it is really brilliant. However, these rings are made of much softer metal than the more expensive rings and the threads are much easier to strip out. The design and the strength of the material is sufficient...it is not strong enough to bubba or democrat them. I would never attempt to install then with out a torque wrench / FAT wrench. I would never, ever, ever exceed 10 inch pounds on the upper screws and would never ever exceed 12 inch pounds on the base screws. Clean out the threads of chips and debris, use good installation techniques, and these rings will perform as well as the $60 dollar rings.....I have installed 20 + sets, have 4 sets on my personal 22s, and 2 sets on my H&R 20 and 12 gauge ultra slug guns with perfect results.....EXCEPT for the one set I ruined by not following this advice. I will buy and use them with confidence on any caliber up to 30-06 and only buy more expensive rings when I want a certain look or function like QD. The low ring is almost the lowest you can find.
