Just wondering if these rings are totally worth the money? I know that the fact that my millett has a 35mm tube kind of limits my options, but was just wondering if anyone has or is using a set of these and if they are superior to the millett product?
Vortex precision engineered 35mm rings
- Thread starter kmartel
- Start date
Well I'll definitely need to order up a set of the .92" med ones then. The ones the millett came with are ridiculously high and would love to get the foam padding and hockey tape off of my stock PRONTO 
haha. Thanks for the input!

I just went through the same thing, ordered the precision matched vortex rings from out east.
Way worth the money. They dont look amazing on their website, but they are beefy units.
The screws on them are like 2 or 3 times the diameter of what the millett rings are. Way nicer than the millet rings. I didnt want to spend the money but Im glad I did. Call around though, I had one place quote me like 80% more than where I got them from.
I was going to try and find a set of the millett lows as the rings that come with the 35mm millett were way too tall, coulndt find anyone who had the low milletts in canada, so spent the extra coin on the vortex's and Im glad I did. I did call at least half a dozen shops out west and no one stocked them, and couldnt tell me when they'd get here.
I do have the old set of millett 35mm tall rings if you need something to get you by, but you probably already have a set.

Trust me the fit and finish on the Seekins compared to the Vortex is like comparing a Zeiss Victory FL Diavari to a Zeiss Conquest. Sure they both look the same and have similar features but when it comes down to it they are hard to compare. Not knocking the Vortex cuz I am not but hell Seekins I just place on a whole different level.
