    Angled cap scope rings

    Is there any advantage to one orientation or another ?

    Here are some angled ones from Spuhr.

    Why not just have screws vertical like in this conventional vortex pair ?

    The idea is to not obstruct the view on your lateral turret and your vertical turret I believe.
    But split horizontal rings have worked very well for years.
    Beware of the spilt vertical ones, some like the warnes going on sako/ tikka/ cz have a tendency to ovalise or even f.ck your scope tube if over torqued.
    Carbine, 7mmwsm, Bagheera and 2 others like this.
