Here's a nice ring:

Just the thing for my mage. It's Angband 4.1.3, in case anyone is wondering. Oh, and the activation is unusual: when I use it, the game says, "You breathe a missile."

You breathe a missile. Nice

The great thing about that ring is you don't have to go through the standard hand-ringing of speed vs. stat-stuffing on your fingers.

It clearly says:
"Why not both?"

Best bow I have seen yet, in the newer versions - and yes, found by a ranger! Although, with that hilarious +6 int bonus, a mage wouldnt say no either.
It is missing a brand for the "perfect" bow, but then branded bows arent all that valuable because you can get the brand from the arrows.

[Estie]

Nice. Cant remember having seen higher than +15 (which I had suspected to be a hard cap).
