[QUOTE="Hoss50, post: 2972234, member: 109801"] I have a leupold solid base with the rear adjustable windage base in the back like the picture. The rifle is a 300 weatherby mag and the recoil has ripped the edge of the rings off where the windage screws hold it in place. That rifle is getting switched to picatinny and stout rings. I am slowly switching most of my rifles to picatinny as I like the more solid base/ring mount style. Back in the day when leupold and others developed rings and bases most people weren't mounting 30+Oz scopes on cannons of rifles. I have never had a problem with leupold rings and bases on normal recoiling rifles with light 1" tube scopes like everyone used to use. [/QUOTE]
