The DNZ X96500 Black Aluminum 30mm Tube Medium Rings are a lightweight, precision-engineered mounting solution for hunters and shooters building a repeatable, durable scope setup on right-hand firearms. Unlike heavier one-piece mounts, these two-ring system uses a solid-block billet aluminum construction that cuts weight without sacrificing strength—ideal when every ounce matters in the field, whether you're hunting at distance or working a precision rifle at the range.
Built from 6061T6 aluminum, the DNZ X96500 rings deliver the rigidity required for accurate scope mounting through a design with no moving parts between your rifle and optic. The medium height of 1.06" (measured from receiver top to scope tube centerline) fits most long-action rifles with standard picatinny rails. Each ring is secured with precision socket-head cap screws—two per ring—that resist loosening and maintain zero under recoil and temperature swings. The engineered aluminum also absorbs shock and handles extreme temperature ranges better than steel at a fraction of the weight.
Mounting is straightforward: base screws (6-48 X 1/4") and ring screws (6-40 X 5/8") both use a 7/64" Allen wrench for easy field adjustments or removal. The rings are 0.63" wide with an outside-to-outside spread of 4.820", giving you solid purchase across a 30mm scope tube. If you're after a tactical variant with extra clamping security, DNZ also makes a four-screw version of these rings—this two-screw standard set is the go-to for hunters and precision shooters who prioritize lightweight reliability without unnecessary bulk.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these rings fit my long-action rifle?
Yes. The DNZ X96500 is designed for long-action rifles with standard picatinny rails. The outside-to-outside ring width is 4.820", which accommodates standard long-action spacing. Make sure your firearm is right-handed; these rings are engineered for right-hand platforms.
What's the height difference compared to high or low rings?
The DNZ X96500 Medium rings sit 1.06" above the receiver (measured from the top of the receiver to the center of the scope tube). This medium height works well with standard hunting and tactical scopes on rifles with typical receiver profiles; if you need lower or higher clearance, check DNZ's other height options.
How do I adjust or remove the rings in the field?
Both the base screws (6-48 X 1/4") and ring screws (6-40 X 5/8") are accessed with a 7/64" Allen wrench, making field adjustments and scope removal straightforward without special tools.
Are these heavier than one-piece mounts?
No—the DNZ X96500 aluminum rings are approximately 67% lighter than comparable one-piece steel mounts, making them a solid choice for weight-conscious hunters and backpacking shooters who don't want to sacrifice strength or reliability.
