Second hand Walther LGV killed my BSA scope in less than a week. That BSA had been a band-aid for many springers while making final optics decisions, so no grudges there.
Had a spare Primary Arms 4-14 FFP scope hiding in the shop, begging NOT to be put on a springer... too bad.
Can't stand rings that are too high... why have a comb on a stock if you're just gonna float yer noggin? Problem is the only "on-hand" rings that came close to being perfect required a sandpaper shim in each ring to keep the objective bell from touching the receiver, while still not providing enough daylight to install a flip open cover.
So... one of my least favorite chores beckoned... hunting down optimal rings for this (or any) springer...
The things I LOVE about these rings are;
Shown here with 1" inserts; (30mm opening when removed)
Will post review when they arrive. (ordered two sets)

- ...right height
- ...right size
- ...one piece or two?
- ... reasonably good looking
- ... good grip ... no VICE like grip... with ample ring screws and preferably dual dovetail screws !!!
The things I LOVE about these rings are;
- Not "clunky" looking.
- Can be used for 1" scopes in a pinch with inserts (extrusion is for 30mm)
- Six screws per ring for good grip without excessive torque
- Dual dovetail screws on each base for improved load distribution and stability
- Optimal height for current application (if the "Chinglish" print is accurate)
- Direct application for 11mm dovetail
