Got a pair of them for a cz 527 varmint. Anyone using them? I have tried every combination I can to get the rings lined up with the bore but no luck so far....The scope looks like it is pointed a quarter inch to the left of the center of the barrel, I know this won't work. Any suggestions, by the way the package the rings came in said they were for a bruno cz 527......Thanks in advance

I have a pair of angle loc rings on an Encore 209 x 50 and they were a bit troublesome to get installed properly. Once sighted in they work ok. Having said that if I ever take them off they will be discarded. I do not like them and suggest you investigate other rings. Their design in theory may be ok but leave a lot to be desired for practical use.

Angle loc rings have probably ruined as many good scopes as the windage adjustable bases that have been used a lot by unknowing shooters. I use only Burris Signature rings when ever I can, there's simply no better ring mount available for the money. If you must use standard type rings, I would recommend the use of a lapping and alignment tool like the wheeler kit.

I agree with quickdtoo 100% how can you have one ring tight and adjust the windage without bending or putting stress on the scope

Let's see, how can I be diplomatic, PC and nice about this? Hmm, well? OK dang it I can't.

They are JUNK Toss them and buy you a decent set of rings. I suggest Burris Signature Rings.
