[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 1490159, member: 9281"] So again, I have swapped inserts around in an appropriate fashion according to the installation instructions...it made no difference. Still had the same issue of binding in the parallax. Your suspicion of my problem is false, here’s why: As I mentioned in the original post, the scope tube actually was damaged due to these rings at the area where the far ring clamps. It was egg or football shaped due to what I feel was a lack of support in the squishy inserts. Your scenario could not have caused this kind of damage, only an excessive direct crush load on the tube in that spot could cause what happened. Maybe your scope tubes will put up with more clamp load than my Burris? Either way I am waisting exactly zero more time with these rings...because I’ve already been there done that trying to make them work. I feel if they were using an aluminum inserts of the same design there may not be an issue. I’m glad they’re working for you. [/QUOTE]
