Drop Tested Scope Rings?

[Bridgerland]

Have read up on just about every drop test thread that exists on this forum and have recently noticed that there seems to be little to no mention of rings used.

Is there any prevailing sentiment regarding scope rings and whether or not they’d pass a drop test? I’m currently sitting with the Leupold backcountry rings, will be mounting either a Maven or NXS scope in a few weeks in preparation for this fall. I would definitely sleep better at night knowing my scope rings won’t ever be a point of failure.

I think the default to not even think about scope rings is NF Ultralight rings but people also like other ones such as Unknown Munitions. Another general "vibe" I've seen on it is that Form doesn't like rings that have two smaller rail screws, he (and many others) seem to prefer one singular higher torque crossbolt.

Iv had most of the big name rings now.

I just buy nightforce rings now. They are not sexy, but they work and are well made.

This.

If I am on a budget, I will use the SWFA rings, but the NF rings are my first choice for anything with a rail.
