[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1667340, member: 9308"] Your "boomer" must have some pretty vicious recoil. The only gun I've had where anything "slipped" was a scope mounted on my spring-piston air rifle. Could not possible tighten the rings to the mount enough to stop it from moving. And I think if I did get the RINGS to quit moving on the mount, then the scope itself would have decided to try slip-sliding away. I just gave up on trying to scope that thing. That's also the only gun I've managed to "kill" a scope on (two of them, actually.) Spring piston airguns are fascinating to me. How they can destroy and 'move' scopes and rings when .375s, .338s, and the like have no effect is bizarre. Is your "boomer" a spring piston airgun!? :D [/QUOTE]
