Is there a non Ruger source making rings to fit Ruger dovetail.

I would really like to find a non-Ruger source for the dovetail clamp screws.

Millet Sights used to sell/make hard clamp screws that don't stretch or peen out and get loose like some Ruger factory screws do. But that company seems to be gone now.

Any still making/selling these harder screws?
 
Warne makes them, but I just don't like the looks of a perpendicular scope ring.

 
The Aussie made Hillver mount attacks to the dovetail and is very strong.

I have a long action bridge mount and you can change the ring sizes on those .

I think the one I have is a NIB version made by Lynx and it is available if you have interest in it
 
I’m in the process of switching all my beloved Rugers to Alaska Arms rings, they are simply outstanding.

Alaska Arms.
 
I had AA rings on my Ruger RSM .416Rigby and currently have AA rings on my BRNO .375 H&H.

I can vouch for Alaska arms, their stuff is excellent; now having said that, I’ve got lots of Ruger rings that have never shifted or peened.

The windage adjustable Leupold mounts on ther other hand, every set I’ve had on .300’s+ have failed on me.

Leupold makes good Ruger rings with properly hardened screws.

Brownells has T-10 Tork screws for the rings. Have replaced all of my soft Ruger ring screws.
I would call them for the base mount screws.
 
I don't want rings. I don't want ring screws.

I want the ring clamp screws. I want the hardened screws like Millet Sight use to sell.

Yes there are a lot of Ruger screws that don't stretch or peen. But some use to and it wasn't all that uncommon.

My newer made Ruger don't seem to have the problem. Maybe that is the solution to my problem, buy some new made Ruger clamp screws.

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
