I bought my first custom rifle about 10 years ago from Hill Country Rifles. It is chambered in .300 Weatherby. I had a Swaro Z5 3-18 on it for many years but recently upgraded to a Z8i 2-16x50. Because of this I will be going from a 1” tube to a 30mm and will need to remount. Being my first rifle I did not see the need for a muzzle brake and this thing has a pretty significant amount of recoil. I love the more classic look of the Talley Lightweight one-piece rings but was wondering if the recoil would justify the move to a piccatiny rail with a heavier duty ring. I don’t have any issues with the eye relief so that aspect of the pic rail is irrelevant. Thanks in advance for any feedback.
