Looking at my options for an Accuracy International in 308 and wondering what the regulars tend towards and why? I'm liking how the Spuhr stuff looks but the price point is a bit of a put off. All thoughts and ideas welcomed!
What are your "Go To" rings, and why?

On my precision rigs I run (or have run) badger Ordnance and MDT rings. Both do their jobs which is about all you can ask of rings. The aluminum MDT rings are significantly lighter than the steel Badgers I was running, fwiw.

- somewhere with a lot of standoff
ATRS rings, top notch quality, amazing price, and have a ###y maple leaf on the top. I guess I like to support Canadian companies.

I like using rings with plastic inserts that protect my scope investment.

Have had many NEAR alphamounts over the years , always holding top tier optics and never had a scope move on me or had any marks left behind
I have had an AI 28 moa mount on my AW (zero moa rail) for four years and 3500 rounds. It has never moved or come loose (i check the torque every 6 months). I have thought about getting a more expensive mount, but concluded it would not hold my scope any better than my current one.
If you have a 56mm objective and look at the AI mounts, do not get their 45 moa mount, It sits too high. Guys use the 28moa and get the center of the base milled, drops a 56mm down on the deck.
Nightforce ultralights.
The vortex precision rings are heavy duty too. I had the 35mm ones on my last build.
I just picked up a set of Burris signature zee rings. I like the adjustment in the inserts and no chance for ring marks. They aren't as "tactical" as most options mentioned, but are practical for sure. I'll see how they hold up.

I had been running some nightforce rings with a bubble level, and it worked well,0 but I've got a set of barrett exRings on order. I like the fact that they have adjustable cant (20-30 MOA) and are supposed to be rock solid plus it'll give me a little more play to zero my scope a little lower in the adjustment range.
that said, Spuhr mounts are supposed to be top notch from what I've read and seen, but you'll pay dearly for it.

Except on the oversized set that I got that bottomed out on both sides and allowed the scope to slide in them........
No more MDT rings for me
Too bad, because aesthetically, I really liked them.My go-to's are Warne.
I have a set of Nightforce Aluminum/titanium that I like as well.
