I was hoping that someone could give me a recommendation on a good scope ring for my M1a. The scope i will be ordering is the super sniper 10X42. I already have a b-square mount that i was hoping to use. I have been looking at the badger ordinance,luepold, or gg&g rings. I also have been told that i need a low ring height. Any recommendations would help a bunch. 

If the enemy is in range, so are you.

Badgers would work fine, just don't over tighten them on that aluminum B-Square base.  This model should work for your application.

 

Badger Ordnance 306-08.....$139.95

Well i went with the IOR low 30mm rings with a recommedation from one of your sales guys at swfa. The bad thing the b-square mount seems to have problems. When I tighten the round knob the scope gets pulled far to the left. I believe the mount is out of spec. When i look at the target the scope at 100yrds is a good 6-8 ft off target. Im not too sure if b-square has a warranty on there scope mounts, but may be worth looking into. I am really not happy at all with the quality from the b-square. I would like to know what you guys recommend ARMS or Springfield. I'll probably end up getting one of the two. Thanks for the help

That ARMS mount is lighter than the SA mount. It's also a lot sleeker looking and more compact. I would spend the extra money and get the ARMS mount.
