After reading this I am tempted to take the scope off my srh and see if I shoot better without it. Maybe it is the scope, it does have some nice sized marks where it was over tightened by the previous owner..

Things happen from recoil. I had a Bushnell red dot on my SBH, .44 and missed a deer at 22 yards. I went down to my range and could not keep it on paper at 50 yards, then the light went out. I found a broken wire and fixed it.
I put another Bushnell on the gun, played heck getting it sighted to center.
I then shot three shots at 100 yards off hand and got this group. I can now make crazy claims!

Silly, silly, silly but I did do it once after a lifetime of shooting so now you guys can drool!
I do NOT trust these things and the gun will get an Ultra Dot.

It is a catch 22...

more rings means better scope protection during recoil, but more hardware means more things could go wrong...

Try it without the scope, what is the worst that could happen?

My be you need to borrow your son's 480...lol

if it is ruger rings that attach to the barrel, which includes NO base....it doesn't get much better than that.

X2...I really like the Ruger integral base/Ruger ring mounting system.

I guess I'll check the scope.
