Farmer rick Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Quick canvasing of opinion for some new rings... Tier one - 2 screw version Burris XTR signature - with the Moa inserts Any thoughts or experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Tier One rings are as good as it gets - but, if you need the extra elevation without using a tapered scope-rail, the Burris rings are a good option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcampbellsmith Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Burris are good as long as you are sticking to one scope. The inserts allow you to centre your scope and elevate it if required. The XTR rings don't return to zero if you swap scopes. In an ideal world I would have quality rings like Tier One modified to accommodate Burris inserts. I've tangled with scope mounts for 45+ years and I've yet to find a good solution that stands the test of time. Picatinny rails are a small step forward, but rings still seem stuck in the last century. Some manufacturers, including Tier One seem to struggle to make Picatinny rails to spec.

Fifty_seven Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Tier one's are exactly the name implies. They are very nice rings. Tier One Tactical scope ring are my favorite. They are the toughest and accurate aluminum scope ring for any kind of rifle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English Rifleman Posted August 12, 2022 Report Share Posted August 12, 2022 Just my opionion. i found the fixing screws in the tier ones a bit flimsy & easily damaged, by the not great quality driver bits supplied. Also just recently had the use of a brand new set of Burris XTR rings and although i found the issue and resolved it. When all the correct shims where fitted inthe correct places (to give 20 Moa Elevation), something just didnt do up correctly first time and no matter how much wind was dialed i could not get scope bore sighted. I then noticed that the front bell of the scope was not sitting dead centre of the Pic Rail?? After removing and refitting spacers (all in the same configuration) it finaly sat centered on rifle and i was able to bore sight & first shots hit centrally on target. I really did not like the variation that these rings gave, wether that was user error or poor design? i dont know. but to much possiblity of error for my liking. I am just glad i hadnt purchased these mounts, would have been disappointed I have standard burris uni-mount and its great, no issues, I know these are not in the same price range, But Spuhr and just fantastic.

seaturtle Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 I have had good luck with Burris Zee Signature rings. They hold great on my magnum rifles and they come with 0 and 20moa inserts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
