I just bought a heavy barrel Encore for Varminting. Now I need to scope it. I am still trying to figure out which scope to buy for lowlight and no light hunting but just as important I still need to choose the rings to use.

I got the TC alum base from VVCG that I ordered when I ordered the rest of it. But now I need to decide on the rings to use. I would like to stay with alum rings to keep the rifle as light as possable.

So what are the best rings to use on my Encore?

Nobody has any good ideas?

I have been using the "el cheapo" split Kwik Site rings. You can see pics of them on a few of my handguns at the links below. They are aluminum, light in weight but i have YET to have a single scope move! Check em out!

Personally, I like Warne rings. They are extremely strong.

Thanks Jeff, thats what David was reccomending as well. I forget, are those alum or steel? I would like the lightest weight rings I can get that still offer good strength.

They are Steel. However, I believe you can get aluminum as well. I'll have to check.

I like the burris signature rings. They will hold the scope solidly, and not leave a ring around your scope. They are very forgiving if the alignment is off a bit.

I lke the Burris signature rings. They are nice. No ring marks is a definite plus.
