The Traditions A793DS Weaver style high rings deliver a straightforward, reliable way to mount your scope to a rifle with a Weaver-compatible base. Built from a combination of aluminum and steel, these 1-inch diameter rings are engineered to stay put once tightened—thanks to nonslip inserts on both the top and bottom surfaces that grip your scope tube securely and upgraded screws designed to resist loosening from recoil and handling. If you're setting up a hunting rifle, range gun, or any firearm that uses a Weaver mount system, quality rings are non-negotiable; cheap or slipping rings can shift your zero and ruin an otherwise solid shot.
These rings sit in the "high" position, which gives you extra clearance between the barrel and scope—useful if you're running iron sights as a backup, using a scope with larger objective lenses, or just want more room for your hand under the scope. The black finish matches most modern rifles and optics setups and resists corrosion in field conditions.
Installation is straightforward: position the rings on your Weaver base, seat your scope tube, and snug the screws evenly. The nonslip inserts and improved screw design mean you won't need to crank them down excessively, which can actually damage a quality scope or create uneven mounting. This is the kind of piece that works best when it fades into the background—solid, honest hardware that holds your optic right where you put it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rifles and bases are these rings compatible with?
The Traditions A793DS rings are Weaver-compatible, meaning they'll mount to any rifle with a Weaver-style base. Weaver is one of the two most common scope mounting standards in the US, used on everything from budget to premium rifles. If your rifle has a Weaver picatinny rail or a base marked "Weaver," these rings will work. If you're unsure, check your rifle's manual or the base itself—it will typically say Weaver or Picatinny.
What scope tube size do I need these rings for?
The A793DS rings are sized for 1-inch scope tubes, which is the standard diameter for most hunting and sport rifle scopes. Before ordering, verify your scope's tube diameter—it's usually printed on the scope itself or in its manual. Do not guess on this; a 1-inch ring will not fit a 30mm or 34mm scope safely.
Why would I choose "high" rings over standard or low rings?
High rings provide extra vertical space between your barrel and scope, which is useful if you want to keep iron sights accessible as a backup, are using a scope with a very large objective lens, or simply prefer more hand clearance under the scope for comfortable shooting. Low rings sit closer to the barrel and are better if you want a lower sight line or more compact overall profile.
What makes these rings hold tight better than cheaper alternatives?
The nonslip inserts on the top and bottom of these rings create friction against your scope tube, resisting the rotation and movement that can occur from recoil and handling. The upgraded screws are designed to resist loosening from the same forces. Together, these features mean your zero won't shift mid-hunt or between range sessions.
