The Steiner T5965 T-Series rings deliver precision mounting for 34mm riflescopes with aircraft-grade aluminum construction and repeatable zero retention. These medium-height rings accommodate standard objective lenses while maintaining proper scope-to-barrel clearance on most bolt-action and semi-automatic platforms.
What Makes This Different
Engineered with four-screw cap design and cross-bolt construction, these rings distribute clamping force evenly across the scope tube to prevent optical damage. The integrated recoil lug system transfers energy directly to the rail rather than relying solely on ring friction. Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with Type III hard anodizing, they resist corrosion and wear significantly better than standard steel rings.
Key Features
- 34mm tube diameter accommodates modern tactical and hunting scopes
- Medium height (0.97-inch center-to-rail) clears standard objective lenses
- Four-screw ring caps with 18 inch-pounds torque specification
- Cross-bolt design with integrated recoil lug for maximum security
- 6061-T6 aluminum construction with matte black Type III anodizing
- Picatinny rail compatible with standard mil-spec dimensions
- Precision-machined surfaces ensure consistent scope alignment
Field testing demonstrates these rings maintain zero through temperature cycling from -20°F to 140°F and repeated shock loads equivalent to magnum cartridge recoil. The cross-bolt system prevents scope movement under rapid-fire sequences or heavy recoil conditions. Professional shooters rely on this mounting system for precision rifle competitions and tactical applications where scope shift equals mission failure.
