The Warne Maxima 30mm Extra Hi Matte scope rings deliver rock-solid optic retention for Weaver-style bases, combining precision engineering with heavy-duty recoil resistance to keep your zero shot after shot.
- Square stainless steel recoil control key engages base slots with zero slip
- Front and rear rings both feature positive recoil keys for maximum stability
- Extra-high profile accommodates large objective lenses and raised rail systems
- Wide ring band provides increased clamping surface to secure 30mm tube firmly
- Four Torx T-15 socket cap screws torque evenly to a recommended 25 in/lb
- Matte black finish reduces glare in bright field conditions
Who This Is For
These rings are an excellent choice for hunters and precision shooters running 30mm scopes on Weaver-style or Picatinny bases who need a higher mount to clear larger objective bells or angled stocks. They're especially well-suited to magnum rifle platforms where heavy recoil demands a ring system that won't shift, swage, or peen the base over time — even on softer alloy receivers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these rings fit a Picatinny rail as well as a Weaver base?
Yes. The Warne Maxima rings are designed for Weaver-style cross-slot bases and are also compatible with MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rails. The square stainless steel recoil key seats firmly in the cross slots of both rail types, ensuring a non-slip fit regardless of which system your rifle uses.
How do I know if the Extra High profile is the right height for my setup?
The Extra High profile is intended for scopes with large objective lenses (typically 50mm or greater) or situations where barrel contour, front sight hoods, or stock geometry require additional clearance between the scope tube and the barrel. If you're running a 40–44mm objective on a standard sporter barrel, a High or Medium profile ring may be more appropriate for achieving the best cheek weld.
What tool do I need to install and torque these rings?
You'll need a T-15 Torx driver or bit to install the four socket cap screws on these rings. Warne recommends torquing each screw to 25 in/lb — a small torque wrench or a Wheeler FAT Wrench with a T-15 bit works perfectly. Apply torque evenly in an alternating pattern to ensure the scope tube is held uniformly without distortion.
