[QUOTE="littletoes, post: 15943, member: 579"] Mr. Ian, now that we are both calmed down, I would have to say that yes, I am in full agreement that the Badger Rings are without a doubt, stronger, and yes, better made. I wanted to state the fact that most people do not need that extra strength and weight at such an extraordinary cost. Regardless of the size of the rifle. I do not remove DD's once they are set on their basses, so the problem with metal removal isn't present beyond the initial instalation. The fact also is there that if used incorectly anything can and will fail, as has several of the higher quality rings. The inherant inacuracy in the use of "Weaver" style basses is one example. To quote Ken Marsh is one example: "Murphy's law of mechanical assembly is: Tolerances accumulate unidirectionally towards maximum difficulty of assembly. Barrels do not screw into actions at the exact same angle everytime. Scope-hole drilling and tapping ages and wanders. Manufacturers change their method for making receivers, and mounting surfaces are shaped a little differently." So as to say that we are not living in a perfect world. Also, I wold like to mention on the fact, it isn't that people who use DD's WILL NOT SPEND THE MONEY, it may be the fact that we DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY to spend 300 bucks on rings and basses. There is nothing worse than someone who belittles others because they can not afford the high end items. The idea is to get out there and shoot. To get that rifle ready for the field, and shoot.
