Hello RightHand:
I just posed this queston on the M14 forum, and wondered if you could take the time to personally answer it for me.
"After reading all the positive posts on the Sadlak mount for the M1a, I ended up purchasing a Sadlak “Airborne” mount. It should be here next week.
Now comes the question of the right rings for this mount. Originally, had I planned on buying a set of Burris Signature “Zee” rings, but after spending a significant amount of time searching out threads here, I’ve come to the conclusion that Weaver style rings are not the way to go with a Picatinny rail system.
I know Leupold Mk-4 rings are recommended, but wonder if the “Burris XTR Xtreme Tactical“ rings wouldn’t work just as well (and at a considerably lower price point!).
Is there really that much difference (half again as much cost for the Leupold), or will the Burris be just as stable when mounted to the Sadlak?
Thank you,
Rich"
Respects,
Rich
