[QUOTE="littletoes, post: 15937, member: 579"] Ian, why don't you copy and paste that last thread and send it too Leupold? Then tell us your reply. That might be interesting. When I put a scope/base on, it stays. If I am to replace the scope I replace the basses and rings, but never take them apart. Metal on metal? When you clamp your rings on basses, isn't that a metal/metal contact? I don't think the dovetails are ment to be "QD" style. If you are going to mount a scope permanantly on a rifle, then the DD's are great. If you will remember on a lot of the earlier tactical matches the DD's where used extensivly. These new fangled three pound rings are great, if you ain't carrying that rifle very far. I have friends that are putting Max 50's on there rifles because they are the latest fad, and are way coool, (spelled with 3 O's on purpose), but not the ideal thing for a carry weapon.
