I got super lucky and was selected for the Camerland NY drawing earlier this month and now I’m the haply new owner of a Bushnell Elite Tactical DMR II 3.5-21x50. It has a 34mm tube. I’m looking for a good set up for it. I’ve been happy with Seekins lately but figured I’d see if anyone else had any favorites.

Congrats SOB, you will love that scope. I like Seekins as well but dee has me looking at Hawkins for my next rings. I do like their design.

I typically use Seekins or Vortex Precision Matched (same thing), but I needed some 34mm rings a couple of years ago and all I could find on short notice was the TPS TSR rings. The mounting instructions were really odd, but I followed them and everything came out perfect. Haven't touched anything on them since the day I mounted the scope.

Another vote for ARC M10 rings. I've got 5 pair of them,and they work great.

Vortex and Seekins are the only rings I buy any more. Seekins makes the Vortex PMR rings.

We got the USMC edition of Badger rings. No good reason and probably overkill but I think it's tacticool. Certainly functions flawlessly up to 308.

Another "if you must stray from Seekins"..... My ReallyRightStuff unimount is an amazing piece of equipment. It's the one piece of kit that has never changed over the years. Beautiful and extremely functional. Lots of little things that add up to an excellent scope mount.

The Seeking or Vortex PMR rings (they are the exact same) are both great ways to go for the price. Spuhr is absolutely great stuff, I have a single piece mount from them that is damned impressive

I am not certain what gun you are mounting to, but I have one of these that I put on a gun and then took it right back off.

$40 if you are interested.

I have a set of 34MM rings from LaRue Tactical. They have held up well over the years and they are made in Texas.

Larue SPR CAN mount with 34mm rings will run you just under $150 if you have a picatinny rail. This is a QD mount/ring combo and one of my favorite. Earl

Thanks, everyone. Lots of great suggestions. Ended up grabbing a set of Seekins from a buddy of mine.
