Ruff’s Precision Manufacturing RPM or UM Premier

[_Tyler_]

Has anyone used these rings and can comment on their quality, durability, accuracy of the level, etc? I’m very interested in them and wanted to see if others have experience that would help me with my decision. I like that the level is in the base of the ring rather than the cap. Also, I’m a lefty who shoots a standard right handed action and the size of the level shouldn’t get into the way of ejection. I was looking at the UM Premier Rings and ejection could be a problem unless I moved the level to the front ring.

Thanks guys!

Anyone have any experience with the UM Premier or the RPM?

Yes. I have a set of Ruffs. Been running them a couple of years. So far they've been good. Only issue I have with them is the placement of the level. It's difficult to see and would benefit from being lower. Such as it is, the level can only be used with scopes that don't have a large occular housing. For that reason, the UM rings are a better design. I have several sets of UM Tikka rings in service and have found them to be of good quality.

I was running Hawkins rings on all my rifles and im now switching to the RPM rings. There quality is on par with the Hawkins but i prefer the level location on the RPM set.

Bumping this back up to maybe get further feedback.

Picked up a Nx8 4-32x50 and figuring out ring setup..
RPM
vs UM Premier
vs NF or Warne Mtn Tech plus a MKM scope mounted level

I have the Hawkins set on my current setup, but I'm not a fan of the bubble on the top (non-offset) because I have harder time seeing it.

I have a set of the um rings. They seem to be quality rings. I put them on after hunting season when I changed out my vx6hd for an atacr 4-16x42 so I don't have a lot of use on them yet but I would definitely buy them again. You can set up the level for whichever side you want it on.
