    Tikka 30mm rings.

    What are some suggestion for decent lightweight 30mm rings for a tikka to suit a VX6.
    My VX6 is currently on my remington with factory one piece rings and bases.

    I have Matt black Talley 30 mm ultralight rings for a Tikka here, they held a VX 6 on my test rifle with ease. $100


    They are very well made, seriously light and easy to set up.

    I have some Tikka Optilocks that I will be selling shortly.
    They are the one piece ones and blued. I rate as a good option. They fit my vortex pst with minimal clearance at barrel bell.
    Not as light as the above Talleys though

    I've used both.

    Both work well and hold zero perfectly. Only changed from optilocks to the talleys when changing from 25mm to 30mm tube size and wanted to save a few $$$$.
