Talley Scope Rings and Mounts
About Talley Manufacturing
For more than 40 years, Talley Manufacturing has been recognized as the standard for superior quality in the firearms industry.
Founded by Dave Talley, a firearm designer who built custom rifles for hunters, the company was established when he recognized the critical importance of scope mounting systems as the vital link between rifle and scope.
Understanding that a poorly-designed mounting system could render even the most precise scope meaningless, Dave Talley set out to manufacture accessories that could withstand extreme conditions.
The company has earned recognition from gun manufacturers who specify Talley products, and their precise tolerances have vaulted Talley products to the top of the scope ring industry.
Today, under the leadership of President Gary Turner and operating from their state-of-the-art facility in Santee, South Carolina, Talley Manufacturing continues to set industry standards with cutting-edge CNC technology and American craftsmanship.
