Needing recommendation of the above or other brands. Will be going on tikka t3x superlite. Dnz has 20moa and Hawkins has 25moa cant. Preferably 1 piece and/or screws on directly to the receiver. Not wanting a pic rail. Thanks

I can only speak for the Hawkins Hybrids but they are solid and worth every penny.

I went .6 w/ 4-32x50 NX8 on a CA Ridgeline and clearance was perfect. It depends a little bit on your barrel profile but .6 would be the safe bet.

so I bought a set of the Hawkins Long Range Hybrid (0.6") for my Tikka T3x superlite from Brownells but what I received appears to be a returned item as you can tell it was previously opened as it had a new round clear sticker over the old one. should I return it? it looked unmounted/unused. probably just me and my negative thoughts but its just that feeling when you expected what you were buying is factory sealed, instead you got something previously opened. I guess its ok if the rings are the exact ones I purchased...can anyone verify the specs or my measurements in the pics?

If it’s not used what would you gain from returning it?
Just want to make sure the previous person didn’t swap it out with an .5” and return it. Never know with people these days. I’m ok with it if it’s the .6” but I have no way of telling, I couldn’t find any specs/measurements online. If it was factory sealed, untampered, I’ll feel more confident. Don’t want to mount it and come to find out it isn’t what I bought.

Have you contacted the manufacturer for specs?

Put DNZs on mine and they’ve been great. Bought another two sets for other guns.
yes I asked because I have them on my first tikka and was going to go with them again until my buddy told me about the Hawkins so I decided to give it a try. on a hunting trip I slipped on some loose rocks and fell on top of my rifle and scratched my scope, was worried it shifted my 0, took two shots and 0 was still spot on.

I have DNZ on my light rifle and rifle took multiple beatings over the years. I have never had to re-zero. Scope was vx3. I use the 1 piece only though.
