Any measurable benefit in getting the AP brand rings out of curiosity?

I doubt it, but I guess as per usual it mostly comes down to mounting height etc.

Some people just like sticking with their brand too.
Dear Santa,
Please bring me a Desert Tactical Arms SRS-A1 Rifle in .338 Lapua Magnum.
I'll be good with it, I promise!

What do you mean? I use Meopta Meostar R1 4-16X44 on my .204. The Aimpoint scope suits the purpose, expensive...but that has little to do with it.
Browning BL-22 lever action...open sights
T3 Varmint .204 Ruger...Meopta Meostar 4-16X44
T3 Lite .30-06 Sprg...Aimpoint Hunter 1X red dot

....that will do me

For such an expensive and high quality sight I'd always use original mounts. At least you can be sure the alloy is of the right grade and the locking elements will hold the sight in place hence zeroed.
