Re: 30mm front sight-rings or iris
Personally I choose rings for a couple of reasons. I bought a 30mm iris and I didn't like the look of the leaves of the iris. Also I prefer to keep things simple and rings can't fail like an iris can. Also have a look at the adjustment range of the adjustable irises as one iris may not cover the full range you require from 300 to 1000 with and without an eagle eye.
Cheers,
Ryan.

Re: 30mm front sight-rings or iris
Is there a ring adaptor for a Right Sight front tube? I had a Gehmann 30mm iris that recently packed up. Might use rings if I can add them to the tube.
