Warne 201M Maxima Vertical Ring Set - Medium 1" Tube, Matte Black Steel for Rifle Maxima/Weaver/Picatinny

The Warne 201M Maxima Vertical Ring Set delivers the kind of rock-solid, no-compromise optics mounting you need for serious rifle work. Built with 4 T-15 Torx socket cap screws per ring—double the fasteners of standard scope rings—these medium rings for 1" tubes are engineered to handle everything from hunting rifles to precision long-range builds without shift or creep.

What sets the Maxima apart is the recoil management system: Warne's square stainless steel recoil control keys are integrated into both the front and rear rings, creating a positive mechanical stop against the Weaver-style base that resists even the hardest-kicking calibers. This design also protects the base itself from damage when mounted on materials softer than traditional aluminum. The rings themselves feature an unusually wide clamping band, spreading the grip load across a larger contact area of your scope's tube to prevent the tube deformation and stress concentration you'd get with narrower rings.

These rings fit Warne Maxima bases, standard Weaver cross-slot bases, and mil-spec Picatinny rails—the mounting systems you'll find on most modern rifles and chassis. The matte black DuPont power coat finish resists corrosion in the field and won't catch light at the gun show.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bases and rails will the Warne 201M rings fit?

These rings are compatible with Warne Maxima bases, standard Weaver cross-slot bases, and Picatinny/Mil-Spec style rails—the most common mounting systems on hunting and tactical rifles.

Are these rings suitable for heavy recoil calibers?

Yes. The dual recoil control keys in both the front and rear rings, combined with four screws per ring, are designed to withstand significant recoil without shift or creep, making them suitable for magnum rifles and hard-kicking cartridges.

What size tube do these rings fit?

The 201M is designed for 1" scope tubes in a medium height.

Will these rings protect my base from damage?

The square recoil control key design helps protect the base from peening or swaging, especially on softer or less durable base materials, by distributing recoil force evenly across the entire slot of the base.
