Default New rings are Hastings good to use

Does anyone have a better set of rings to use on my .060 pistons, other than what Snyders has?

Snyder's does a good job providing good parts for your A. Hastings have been a good choice for many years.

It's hard to beat Hastings rings. Great reputation for quality. Go with 'em!

Not only, but if you have questions, Dawn, the tech lady will answer them. I’ve talked to her several times, ands she’s quite knowledgeable. Easy to get a hold of as well.

Whatever rings you use, be sure to check/set the end gap on each ring prior to installation.
