The Talley Modern Sporting scope rings in 1-inch tube, high height and flat dark earth (brand part no. TMS10H-FDE) give a Picatinny-railed rifle a clean, cost-effective ring set. Talley machines the TMS rings from aircraft-grade aluminum, and they work with any rail built to MIL-STD-1913 specifications. This version holds a 1-inch scope tube at a high height of 1.00 inch, which helps clear a larger objective lens. They are sold in pairs.

• The height is high, with a listed center height of 1.00 inch measured from the top of the Picatinny rail to the center line of the scope tube.
• The finish is flat dark earth (FDE), a neutral tone that matches many modern rifles.
