[QUOTE="Kanab, post: 67207, member: 1798"] On my .50 BMG's I normally use Badger Max 50's or IOR wide rings, lapped and torqued to 15 inch lbs. and have never had one move even with 800 grain solids loaded pretty hot. I do like the Signatures and use them on quite a few rifles, but they have repeatedly slipped on my .454 Cassul, .50 BMG and now this .338 LM no matter how tight I tighten the screws. I even punched the screw head through the ring body once trying to get them to hold on the .454 Cassul. I suppose I could try rosin, GMS or electricians sealant, but I think I will just wait for the Badgers Max 50's to get here. For what it's worth, I grabbed a set of Warne tactical rings in 30mm to try, just for fun and they are doing well on a McMillan in .50 BMG so far. For the money, they are not too bad. A bit difficult to lap because of the vertical split design. Other than that they seem well made and very solid. [/QUOTE]
