[QUOTE="Its204fast, post: 2214163, member: 114347"] WOW I have learned a bunch reading this post. I Use DNZ on my .204 Ruger and 7mmRM and absolutely love them. I love the single piece look. I am of the belief that the less parts you have the less parts that can break (single piece vs base, ring setup.) but I don't own anything with that type of recoil. years ago a friend had a savage model 110 7mag he bought from a friend, it had a barska scope and some cheapo rings and bases on it. He killed several deer under 200 yds with it over the years and one of the last things he did with it (before it got stolen) was shoot at a range with a friend... he was bragging about hiting a 36"x36" target at 300 yds with it. He left it with me to keep in my safe and told me to shoot it. I bought a box of hornady bullets took it to my personal range on the family farm and it grouped like a shotgun. I put it in my vise thinking i was the problem same results... I got to looking and the rings had been tightened to the base so much it broke the bottom of the ring where it clamps to the base. I advised him of the problem and told him to get the DNZ mounts and he would have a better shooting gun. Not long after that he picked his gun up from me and kept it in his house which got broken into and he had several guns and TV's stolen. I'd love to have a march scope, I have a friend who has an 80x March on his AIR RIFLE.....No I'm not joking. [/QUOTE]
