Who This Is For
These rings are ideal for law enforcement officers, military personnel, and serious precision shooters who demand uncompromising optic security on duty rifles, AR-platform builds, and long-range precision rigs. The extra-high configuration is especially well-suited for shooters running large 50mm+ objective lenses or those who need additional clearance for night vision and thermal optics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the extra-high profile and standard height rings?
The extra-high profile provides greater clearance between the barrel and the bottom of your scope tube. This is especially important when using scopes with large objective lenses (50mm or larger), free-float handguards with top rails, or night vision and thermal devices that require additional mounting height. If you're running a standard objective lens on a flat-top rifle, a lower or medium ring height may give you a better cheek weld.
Are these rings compatible with standard Weaver-style rails, or only Picatinny rails?
These rings are specifically designed to the Picatinny (MIL-STD-1913) rail specification, which features precise cross-slot dimensions. While Weaver-style rails are similar, they have slightly different slot spacing and dimensions. For the most secure fit and to take full advantage of the six-screw crossbolt design, use these rings on a true Picatinny rail. They may fit some Weaver rails, but a dedicated Picatinny rail is strongly recommended.
What torque should I use when installing these rings on my rifle?
Weaver recommends following standard optics mounting torque guidelines: typically 15–18 in-lbs for the cap screws securing the scope, and 65 in-lbs for the rail crossbolts, though always consult the included instruction sheet for model-specific values. The Torx screw design helps prevent cam-out and stripping, but using a calibrated torque wrench is still strongly advised to avoid over-tightening and damaging your scope tube or rail.
