[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 390422, member: 2011"] I agree fully with phorwath! I"m assuming you 10# RUM has a brake installed. If I'm correct a dual dove tail mounting system is the only way to go. I when with the rear windage system as that was what was handy when I mounted the scope. My 338 RUM also weighs 10# w/scope. First I couldn't keep the scope from sliding in the Leupold rings. The rear ring pealed the scope like a banana. Simultaneously the scope internals began to rattle. (Cabelas Alaskan Guide). Switched to Burris Signature rings with 20 MOA inserts. Torqued the ring screws so much that the wrench looked like it was threaded. Twisted it about one full turn. Rings have held for several years. However, the rear windage feature failed after maybe 30 shots. Went with the dual dove tail system with Burris Signature rings w/inserts. Things are as solid as a rock. Just my experience.....
