ZEISS Ultralight 1913 MS Rings 36mm Medium – 27mm Height
The ZEISS Ultralight 1913 Mil-Spec Rings in 36mm/Medium offer a centre height of 27mm (1.06″) and are machined from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium with a Mil-Spec Type III, 30-micron hard-anodised matte black finish. An integral anti-cant bubble level sits in the top half of each ring, visible from the shooting position without disrupting your stance — a genuine advantage for precision and long-range work. An integral bottom recoil lug locks the mounting point and preserves zero under heavy recoil. The interface is MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny, so the rings fit any standard Picatinny-railed rifle. Fasteners are Type 303 stainless steel top cap screws with black oxide finish, and all machined leading edges are micro-radiused for a non-marring design. The rings are supplied as a pair in a hard case.

These rings fit perfectly on my rifle and stay stable even during heavy firing. The bubble level is visible and helps with alignment. The matte finish looks professional and the build feels solid.

I’ve used these on multiple long-range shooting sessions. The recoil lug keeps the rings from shifting, and the anti-cant level helps maintain consistent positioning.

Excellent quality and precision. The micro-radiused edges prevent scratching the rail, and the hard-anodised finish resists wear. A reliable choice for serious shooters.
