Default Burris signature zee rings

Anyone used them? Thoughts? I'm leaning towards them for sticking a 1-4x leupold on my Zastava M70 bavarian in 6.5x55

Are they the ones with the nylon inserts? If so, yes, I have a set on my coyote rifle. I really like them as they won't mark my scope, and they seem to be pretty solid.

I've used a bunch of them over the years on clients guns and they've always done the job really well.

Awesome steel ring! If going for aluminum I choose Talley's

I have a couple of guns that use them. No issues at all.

A nice feature is the ability to use the offset inserts to adjust your point of impact without adjusting your turrets. In one case, my first few shots were striking about 10 inches low at 50 yds. This would translate to about 20 inches low at 100yds. By using the 20moa insert, I was able to raise the point of impact and only needed small adjustments with my turrets to get the rifle hitting the point of aim.
The offset rings can also be used to adjust your POI left, right or down.

I have used the Burris zee rings on weaver bases. They don't have the fancy plastic insert but are excellent quality and value.

yeah that's what I'm running on my .223 and bushnell, but I didn't want to mark up my leupold and didn't want to have to lap them or anything

I have used them on multiple rifles with no problems.
I prefer talleys though.

I like the nylon inserts also. Even the 300 win mag has never shook them. I like the no lapping part, I also prefer the double dovetails.

My biggest beef is that they are too high.

I have a couple pr in use, their nice as far as not leaving marks but will use a heavier tactical ring on my 300 setup as I found they tend to loosen up over time.

I have Signature Zee rings on five rifles ranging from .22 (1" dia) to .308 (30mm). They work great on all of these. I use locktite blue to keep screws from loosening.

Have them on my 308 with a nightforce set in them on a nightforce 20moa rail. Great rings, my go to rings for sure. And as others have said, the inserts work really well if your looking to stretch out the distance on a scope without enough elevation adjustment to get you to where you want to be. I use the 10moa inserts and with the 20moa rail, I was only about 2moa from bottoming out the scope at a 100yd zero. Not that I needed it with the scope I'm running, but I have about 97moa elevation to play with. Long story long, awesome rings, lol
