I use tippet rings all the time. I have a couple of furrled leaders that end in a tippet ring. I have use furled leaders that end in a loop like a perfection loop. I prefer the ones that end in a tippet ring.
As for attaching leader to a tippet ring or a tiny swivel a davy knot is all I use. When I get a new tapered leader I cut the 5x off and tie on a tippet ring. Then I tie on that piece of 5x or smaller stuff for little dries and the tippet/leader set up will not sink any faster at the point where the ring is tied in. I know hard to believe but that is my experience and I am just sharing it with you. Yours my differ so let us know if it does.
