The Weaver 48349 Six-Hole Skeleton Rings deliver precision scope mounting with reduced weight and enhanced aesthetics. These 1-inch medium height rings feature a distinctive skeleton design that cuts material without compromising structural integrity.
What Makes This Different
The six-hole skeleton configuration removes excess material while maintaining the full strength of solid rings. This design reduces overall weight by approximately 30% compared to standard solid rings while providing superior ventilation around the scope tube. The precision-machined aluminum construction ensures consistent return-to-zero performance even after repeated mounting and dismounting.
Key Features
- Six-hole skeleton design reduces weight while maintaining structural strength
- 1-inch tube diameter accommodates most standard rifle scopes
- Medium height provides proper scope positioning for standard bolt-action rifles
- Matte black finish eliminates glare and provides corrosion resistance
- Precision-machined aluminum construction for consistent performance
- Compatible with Weaver-style scope bases and Picatinny rails
- Torque specifications clearly marked for proper installation
These rings perform consistently across temperature extremes and recoil conditions. The skeleton design allows for better heat dissipation during extended shooting sessions, preventing scope tube expansion that can affect zero. Hunters appreciate the weight savings during long treks, while competitive shooters value the repeatable mounting characteristics. The matte finish withstands field conditions without showing wear or creating unwanted reflections.
