The Warne Maxima 1" Low Matte fixed rings deliver rock-solid optic retention for Weaver-style bases, combining precision engineering with heavy-duty recoil management to keep your scope zeroed shot after shot.
- Square stainless steel recoil key provides positive, no-slip ring-to-base engagement
- Front and rear recoil keys withstand even the heaviest magnum recoil forces
- Wide ring band maximizes clamping surface area around your scope tube
- Protects bases from swaging or peening, ideal for softer base materials
- Four Torx T-15 socket cap screws for secure, tool-precise installation
- Matte black finish reduces light reflection for low-profile field use
Who This Is For
The Warne Maxima 1" Low Matte rings are an excellent choice for hunters and precision shooters who demand reliable, repeatable zero retention on hard-recoiling rifles. The low-profile height keeps your 1" scope tube as close to the bore as possible, making them well-suited for bolt-action rifles, AR platforms, and lever guns running Weaver-style bases — especially where a cheek-weld-friendly mount is a priority.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these rings fit my Picatinny rail?
Yes — Warne Maxima rings are designed for Weaver-style cross-slot bases, and Picatinny (MIL-STD-1913) rails are cross-compatible with Weaver-style rings in most cases. The square stainless recoil key engages the cross slot securely on both rail types, giving you a firm, no-slip fit on the vast majority of modern rifles and rail systems.
What scope tube diameter do these rings accept?
These Maxima rings are sized specifically for 1-inch (25.4mm) diameter scope tubes. If your optic has a 30mm or 34mm main tube, you'll need the corresponding Maxima ring size. Always verify your scope's main tube diameter before purchasing to ensure a proper fit and safe clamping.
How much torque should I apply when installing these rings?
Warne recommends 25 inch-pounds of torque on the Torx T-15 socket cap screws. Using a proper torque driver rather than tightening by feel helps prevent over-torquing, which can damage your scope tube, while also ensuring your rings are snug enough to maintain zero under recoil. Always apply torque in a cross-pattern sequence for even clamping pressure.
