 What do you mean by "Weaver style?" Many all steel rings are made to fit Weaver bases.  ???

If your asking specifically screws from each side, look at old stock Redfield. They used to make such a ring.

But as Vic said, many manufacturers offer steel or steel alloy rings for weaver bases.

Have you looked at Burris or Warne rings? They do not attach like Millets, but are a quality steel ring for a weaver base.

Reads like the Op asking about steel Weaver type bases, not rings.    But then it's 5:30 AM here and I've been up since around 3AM yesterday morning.  ::)

If you are talking steel bases, then I have had good luck with Warne steel bases on several hard kicking rifles.  I particularly like their steel quick detachable rings for use on rifles where you have iron sights mounted for back up use.  They work well on a 375 H&H I have now, and a 458Win I used to own.
