I don't like the idea of inserts... Sounds goofy to me.
Thanks though. 30mm tube also.

Have the inserts, like them for a couple reasons:
1. can adjust for windage (in terms of rail, mount, screw holes being slightly off) and elevation;
2. if have to adjust eye relief (add recoil pad, change shooting position), scope slides through inserts thus windage & elevation adj. remain set (though cant can be off); and,
3. not mar scope body.
I took the rings off the weaver base, but rings back on, then moved scope in the rings, and then shot at 300 yards - was on paper.
Have heard cons about one piece bases too - stress receiver if holes not perfectly aligned and also reduce access to ejection port/mag.

Alright, well I went on Burris's website, and installed a plug-in (fairly fresh windows install) and then a video came on explaining those burris rings, and how they are like a bearing inside the rings. Definitely called them goofy before I saw that video though, thinking that they were just like flat plastic inserts that would put weird stresses on a scope.
Now that I know how they work, I think they are brilliant!
Thanks guys

I can offer you various 1" and 30mm Burris sig rings w/inserts. These are the only rings I use and consider them the best rings on the market at any price.
The inserts are what make them so good. As the video likely showed, they act as bearings allowing the scope tube to stay straight even though the base/action is not (more common then we think). No more need for ring lapping (bad idea at any rate) or getting rings marks (sign of scope tube being bent).
These are the only rings that will consistently allow you to remove them and reinstall with no change in POI. Most det rings usually stay within MOA at 100yds. Reason is that the scope tube is not under any tension in the Burris rings. Very possible when conventional rings are used on a 'bent' base/action.
Burris also makes the rings out of a very tough steel and superb hardware.
Let me know if I can help you...
