    Conetrol rings

    Long story/short.Bloody good rings and excellent service.
    I replaced my heavy Opticlocs with some Conetrol rings on my Tikka 595 years ago but when I went from 40mm objective to 50mm they were too low.I liked the rings so much that I was tempted to go back to the smaller scope or worse grind some off my barrel.
    I tried many emails and racked up some toll calls talking to an answer phone in the states trying to order higher Conetrols but got no reply so in the end fitted some Warnes instead,ugly but effective.
    One year later I get an email from Don at Conetrol explaining that his Father had recently passed away and that near the end of his life he had not been able to keep his business going and would I still like to complete my order as they still had stock but from July they would begin to manufacture again and unfortunately they would have to increase their prices.
    So for $85US with free postage I got the rings I had been lusting after.Fitted perfectly about 1mm clearance.
    Don was very friendly and helpful and I can't recommend Conetrol highly enough.Their system is unique and worth a look.Any one want some Warnes????
