[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 362525, member: 2011"] Here's what happened to me.......... 338 RUM 300 SMKs @ 2730 or so. Burris insert rings. To get the scope to hold I had to hawg the ring torque so much that the nifty little wrench looked like it was threaded. That is, it was twisted about 3/4 of a turn. That worked well for about a year then accuracy went bonkers. Cause was the windage adjustment on the rear mount sheared.:rolleyes: Went with double dovetail mounts (rear same as front)--------No further problems.gun) [/QUOTE]
