[QUOTE="Philward, post: 1450195, member: 92604"] I suspect the scope before the rings or mounting procedure. If you can deform the scope tube during mounting with plastic insert rings, that tube must be thin and therefore weaker. If it is plastic that is compressing it seems the scope tube is not deforming. Curious how 15inlbs torqued screws will back it so readily, that seems of in itself. The bolts holding the forks on my motorcycle are torqued to 15inlbs and they never back out. I have signature rings on a 3006 for many years, 1" though, pull it out to check zero and it's 3 shots touching at 100yds without fail. Plain Jane Mossberg 1550 with wood stock and leupold 2x7. Could be the plastic composition has changed or it's a bad run during manufacturing, and they indeed are soft. I stopped dealing with any Burris equipment or the company when they didn't honor the"forever" warranty on signature binoculars that fogged up on me, sometime after the Berreta buyout. [/QUOTE]
