Thread: Scope Rings Moving – Should I Tighten or Just Replace?

Kia ora team,

I’ve been noticing that my scope rings have shifted, which is throwing off my accuracy, especially at longer distances. The rings I’m using are Ranger scope rings, so they’re on the cheaper side. I haven’t re-tightened them yet but am planning to take my setup to Gun City so they can re tighten them.

Is it common practice to need to re-tighten scope rings, or does it typically mean they should be replaced? If replacement is the way to go, I’d love any recommendations on reliable, secure rings to avoid this issue in the future.

Thanks for the help!

Cheers,
