If you're mounting a Leupold scope, I'd go with the two piece Leupold mounts. They have a really cool windage adjustment that NO other manufacturer has. I hear they're awesome mounts!  this about like summoning beetle juice… That’s funny

NF Ultralites are my go to rings. Seekins makes some that are really good, the machining on them is top notch, every one I have used fit the scope like a tight glove. However, they are heavy, and use two screws per ring to attach to the rail rather than the single like NF, for those reasons they are second place for me.

It's easier and faster to remove and install NF Ultralite rings. I just have to come up with a 1/2" wrench. I've used a Crescent wrench on my own stuff, in a jam. I move scopes around a whole lot, though.

EGW Tactical or NF Ultralite rings are the two I recommend.
I also move scopes around and like JG, and with EGW or NF rings, I can do it in 10 minutes or less.

I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

If you want heavy duty and nearly indestructible, take a look at Area 419 rings. I have them on my custom 6.5 CM.
Distance is not the issue, but the winds can make it interesting!
