opinions on warne maxima permanent rings?

[nomad 68]

Just want to know if they are good.I found them online in Canada for $39.95 for 1" medium ht matte.I know warne itself has a decent reputation.Opinions on them and if you know places for decent rings and shipping rates please and thanks?I figure since the rifle has a sightless barrel,detatchables would be a waste of money.

I think Grouseriver has them. They are heavy, though. I replaced mine with Talleys from Prophet River.

Heavy enough to be a factor?The rifle i want them for only weighs 6.25 lb.I hope they won't be too much of a factor because i just took a shot and ordered a set.Thanks

I have Warne rings and really like them. I wouldn't worry about their weight, you are probably talking about fractions of ounces differences between other brands (I have Talley's too).

I've read on a forum that these rings should be lapped.True?Have you lapped yours?Thanks

they are strong rings, and good if you install and leave it there
but if you have multiple rifles and sometimes swap scopes, they will be a real pib

I weighed the Talleys and the Warne rings/bases and although I don't remember the exact number, I believe the difference was over 2 ounces and may have been more. For some reason, 1/4 lb comes to mind, but that seems excessive.

I have warnes and tallies, would buy either if needed

I just get UTG rings off ebay for cheap. Seem real good to me
