[QUOTE="littletoes, post: 15933, member: 579"] All right guys, here's a question - What rings have you guys seen fail? I have heard of a half dozen or so of Badger rings FAIL. Check it out on the tactical sites. Never heard of the Nightforce, Luppy Mark-IV's, or Barrett's having problems. Although the Bagers have the loudest bragers. I own a couple of heavy kickers that are light. This means more kick, and torque against a scope. I have never had rings fail, or break, or even bend a scope. What are you guys doing wrong? I know that some of the pre 74 Remington actions are slightly "off" and if new rings/basses used with them, you will bend your scope, but other than that, what the heck are 'ya doing? Some of the heavy long range rifles with there breaks, help to tame recoil. I have a letter from Leupold that states that there Dual Dovetail rings are 100% as strong as there Mark IV rings. Wouldn't this be a great set of rings for Jake, and save him 100 SMACKERS? Can't believe nobody has mentioned 'em. Yea, he has the 20 MOA basses, but doesn't the Nightforce scope have enough adjustment to get to 1000 yards without the basses? Then again, how about shimming reg-lar basses? Well, rant off I guess, but isn't the idea to be able to save money? So that we can shoot more? [/QUOTE]
