Default Ring Recommendation - 1"Lows or extra low for Picatinny Rail

I'm looking to purchase a set of 1" low rings that would fit a picatinny rail.

I have a set of Zeiss Ultralights 30mm, Nightforce Ultralights 30mm and Mark 4's 35mm and like all of them. - But I don't believe either of those companies make 1" rings for a rail.

I saw Vortex Pro Series ($120) and MDT Lightweight Premiers ($150). Thoughts on either of those two? Also open to other suggestions of good quality.

They will be going on Barrett Feildcraft. Currently I have a Nightforce NXS Compact, with low Nightforce Ultralight rings on it. Scope "centre's" my eye great with my cheek weld, so I am trying to keep it the same height just in a 1" tube. Considering putting a Leupold VX3 HD 2.5-8x36 on it.

I use Leupold PRW2 rings if I am using a rail.

Thanks. I will check them out.

I have a few rails now, just started using them last year or so...really like them. I find I get better eye relief with them and more mounting flexibility.
