What are these rings for and who made them??

[hoz53]

I have these quick detach rings I bought at an auction. At first i thought they were talleys but i dont know now. No markings on them and they fit on a base that sure isnt a pic rail. They are steel.
Can anybody identify these for me. Thanks

edit ---mabie i should put this in optics but ill try it here for now.

I'm thinking maybe for Ruger M77. Quick detachable to fit in place of the stock integral rings. jd

I think I have seen some Talleys that looked like that.....

thanks jd- i was thinking that to at first. Ill see if they fit on my 77. i think the ruger rings for it are different heights though and these are both the same. will post here wat i find out.

They're Talley's and only fit their bases.

thats wat i thought dave but they dont look like they would fit on talley bases i have- mabie they are different than the fixed rings. Thanks much for the Info. ill check their webpage and call them if needed.

Same ring. You just replace the screw with the lever to make them detachable.

Hey JD-- I think you almost won the Prize . The rings do appear to be Talley rings for a Ruger however not for a 77. 1st pic is trying the rings on a 77 and you can see they dont line up like they need to as the 77s receiver rings are different diameters. pic 2 shows differance in 77 rings. But!! then I tried them on a 77/22 (pic 3). They appear to line up and it looks like they would work fine although the levers hit the wood in the front a little. they may actually may be for a differant ruger. ill keep checking.
Thanks and stay healthy

Edit-- yeah ive still got the Colts but sorry they arent the prize

Dave these rings dont fit on a standard talley base as they have the little recoil lug in them. They appear to be for a Ruger - which one not sure but i did try them on a couple. So im narrowing it down. Thanks

 

[DaveTooley]

Missed that. Might be for a Sako with the recoil lug. Are they tapered on the bottom.

Interesting rings, I noticed they are not split down the middle at the base . I thought Talley but have only seen them with both sides the same.

 

[DaveTooley]

To get a location for a solid lug it would have to be off center. Warne uses an insert for a lug so they are split down the middle.

Makes perfect sense now that you explained it, thanks .

if they were made by talley or warne wouldn't their name be on the rings?

 

[okedoke]

ok thanks again

these are talley rings for a ruger #1, I have a set on a 416 rigby express built 25 years ago bought from talley direct. P.S. if u want to sell these rings contact me at lcj1909@gmail.com

I had a set just like those, they were made by Lenard Brownell, famous custom rifle maker from Sheridan, Wyoming. They are excellent.

i dont think they are tapered but im not sure what you mean Dave. i dont have a sako to check how they fit. thanks

yes you do see they have the split over to one side right.
