What type rings/bases to go with SS barrel?

[dlau]

This is a totally superficial question, but if you have a shiny SS barrel, and a black matte scope... what aesthetically looks cooler? Black bases/rings or shiny aluminum bases/stainless rings?

Personally, for me I'd go with matte black bases & rings if possible...

ss bases, matte rings

Matte black bases, rings, and scope........its a rare occasion when you'll get the stainless colours to match from action to rings and bases to scope. A flat black is a good contrast with a stainless barrel and action.

As long as the scope is a VXIII.

What's the rule again? No white rings after Labourday?

I guess there's really no "faux pas"... all combinations look pretty sharp to me.

Thanks for the pics!

The good thing about a matte black scope is that it will look right on any rifle. Matte/gloss/stainless!

That's a fact...matte is kinda like Jack Daniels; goes good with anything.

rings

Had my shiny ss barrel sandblasted anyways so any matt goes with it nicely.

I always go with bases to match the reciever and rings to match the scope.
