Thorn Tactical Scope Mount Rings Heavy Duty Medium Profile for Picatinny Rail 30mm Pair

Giving these a 5 star review based on the initial impression of them. So far no issues with movement. Only a few rounds on a 300WM.Shipped fast - Prime. They are finished well. Paint is even and nothing marred or chipped. The fitment of them is pretty good. The top and bottom pieces align well, although the tops were just slightly wider than the bottom making a very small edge. Nothing that impacts use or would ever be an issue. I’m not a fan of the cloth inside the rings, they were off center and would not aid in aligning a scope. I removed them and lapped the rings. I was actually surprised at how little was removed when doing this. So a definite plus there.The base of the rings holds well, but it is a little tricky at first because if it is angled at all it will not tighten up well on a rail or base. Easy fix though if you hold it in place and/or jiggle the ring while tightening it.I should add that these medium height rings are a little taller than the Weaver tactical or Vortex medium rings. Set side by side, they might be just shy of 1/8” higher (0.125”). For my use, this was not an issue.Are these Vortex or Burris....No. But when installed carefully and correctly they are very nice rings. I would not hesitate to buy these again, especially for the money. Much nicer than any other ‘economy’ priced ring I have messed with.

I used the Wheeler Scope Ring Alignment and Lapping Kit to install these scope rings on 2 rifles. There was no need to lap either scope ring as they were perfectly aligned. We've fired over 40 rounds from each rifle and the rings are solid.Rifle 1 - .270 Savage 110- Weaver Extended Multi-Slot Base - Savage Accu LA 20MOA- Thorn Tactical Scope Mount Rings Heavy Duty Medium Profile for Picatinny Rail 30mm Pair- Vortex Optics Viper HS 4-16x44 Second Focal Plane Riflescope- Witt Machine Custom Clamp-On Muzzle Brake Finish: Graphite Black CerakoteRifle 2 - .30-06 Savage Axis- Weaver Savage Axis 48347 Multi Slot Mounting Base Aluminum- Thorn Tactical Scope Mount Rings Heavy Duty Medium Profile for Picatinny Rail 30mm Pair- Vortex Optics Viper HS LR 4-16x50 Second Focal Plane Riflescope - Dead-Hold BDC Reticle (MOA)- Witt Machine Custom Clamp-On Muzzle Brake Finish: Graphite Black CerakoteTools used to mount and zero scopes- Common hand tools- Wheeler Scope Ring Alignment and Lapping Kit- Wheeler Engineering Scope Mounting Leveling Tool- Wheeler Firearms Accurizing Torque Wrench- HYSKORE 1003629 Gas Dampened DLX Precision Shooting Rest, used as a gun vise as well as a shooting rest.

These are very well built and work great! I have Thorn Tactical Scope Mount Rings on 4 rifles now and doubt I'll have to change. From my Hatsan 95 to my Remington '06 the have remained steady performance rings. They are slightly heavier than others but the price point and durability negates that. Great product!

Fit and finish was good. Using on a PCP air rifle so durability and sturdiness are a moot point. What I did find is the bases aee machined well. Didnt have to lap the rings to align with my barrel. Machining isnt perfect and some of the screws are tighter in some ring holes Vs others. I found out I had to switch screw positions as some had high resistance to tightening but putting them in other holes alleviated this.

Seem to be solid and well made. Easy to install, no issues. Works well for my steiner scope and at the price its really hard to beat them. Make sure when tightening that you use a cross over pattern to ensure even tightening.

Very stout! I bought a pair to mount Coast flashlights to my home defense shotguns, and couldn’t be happier. Built like a tank and 6 base screws each! Will definitely buy them again!

Fits great. I had to upgrade to the medium mount due to the new scope that I got is too big for the low mount. I've had nothing but great experiences with this type of mount. Holds the scope securely to the rifle and haven't had any worries of my scope flying off due to the ring mounts not correctly working.I am going on my first elk hunt this year and plan to see exactly if this was a good investment. It's going to be a long back country hunt where I'll be carrying my rifle long distances over rough terrain.

Good price, decent quality. However I don't recommend the use on anything bigger than 5.56. I had to zero my rem 700 in .308 every time I went out. And after about 10 uses the mounting nut stripped. But they're cheap scope rings, it's what I expected. Great value, and on a smaller caliber I'm sure they'll do the job and exceed expectations.
