26mm rings

Need a set of INEXPENSIVE rings for a project. Would prefer better than Chicom but less than IOR. Anyone know who makes some ?

Not the cheapest, but these are the only ones that I found. I have been looking for the same thing. I believe that you can get the aluminum TSR rings at brownells for $37 with a dealer discount, steel on the other hand has to be ordered direct from tactical precision. I think Leupold makes them in their QR model.

Where have you found IOR 26mm? All I can find are their inserts, and nobody has them in stock. How much are they?

I thought the same thing when this was asked a fe months ago. However, 1" equals 25.4 mm.

Not that I'm aware of but the 1" steel QR rings can be opened up, I've done a few pairs. I used a CNC Bridgeport and endmilled it but the same could be done with a boring bar or possibly an adjustable reamer. I setup using a piece of steel base in the vise and shimed .03" under each set of ring screws. You'r only removing very little, like .012". I've done 3 set's like this and they have turned out great, fit perfectly and given me QD steel rings

YOOO VINNY
