[QUOTE="aroshtr, post: 548661, member: 9176"] My father has a Smith and Wesson 460xvr with the 11.5" barrel. We have installed a Burris handgun scope, and are using a weaver style base. The rings currently in use are Burris Signature Zee rings with the plastic inserts. After about 50 rounds of shooting the scope shifts about 1/8" in the rings, and can rotate as well. Thus keeping a good zero on the gun is very difficult. We have tightend the torx screws to the point of stripping the heads and can't do much more. What should we do? Add an additional ring? Get standard rings without the plastic inserts? Use "tactical" rings such as the burris xtr for more gripping power? Use some sort of loc-tite or glue? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. aroshtr [/QUOTE]
