Hi-line Montana
I’ve looked all over and haven’t found anything comparable. It looks similar to a Talley setup except the entire base is smooth, unlike talleys which have a little indent where the ring sits on the base.

It came on a whitworth .375 I got. Lore says the rifle and Swarovski 1.5-6 it came with got a buffalo on a trip to Africa and it seems like a solid setup so I’m not going to change it, however I’d like to get a second set of rings for it.

I’m trying to download some pictures but it won’t let me, the Parker Hale ones I’m thinking of are very similar but they have a recessed bit through the middle

Those rings are the very first Warne just before they came up with the Premier rings with the lug on the bottom of the ring dovetail.

That is the same base as the Kimber of Oregon as no cross slot for the Premier Ring

Vintage about 1993 - 95

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
