The Leupold BackCountry cross-slot rings for 35mm tubes in high matte (part no. 175123) give large-objective hunting optics clearance without adding unnecessary bulk to a mountain rifle. Leupold machines the two-piece rings from 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum for a high strength-to-weight ratio, and the cross-slot design increases contact with the base to improve stability. The matte black finish reduces reflections and blends with hunting finishes. Among 35mm scope rings, this BackCountry high configuration favors mountain rifles and hunting setups where weight matters.
