Burris XTR Signature Rings
Have any of you tried these rings? I just "discovered" them today with a visit to the Burris web site looking for something else. Since I quit going to ShotShow a few years ago, I seem to keep missing out on some of the new stuff that comes out.

I have been a fan of the Burris Signature Zee rings for many years, but as many of you who use them know, they have their drawbacks.
- Movement of the SCOPE in the rings with hard kicking rifles (Though this can be solved with some powdered rosin)
- Movement of the RINGS under recoil with aluminum bases on hard kicking rifles, damaging the rail slots
- The machined in tabs break off if you swap them too many times from slightly oversized to undersized rails, or vice versa,
- Not very durable overall compared to some others like the Burris Xtremes
The XTR Signature seems to solve all of the problems providing:
- Significantly more gripping surface contact on the scope tube should eliminate scope movement
- Robust, solid, stress free locking mechanism for clamping to the scope rail
- No more breaking off the bending tab
- No more movement of the scope ring on the rail with hard kickers with the larger tab that fits the rail slot and double hex head clamping screws
I am definitely getting some to try out myself but I would be interested in hearing what you guys have to say about them from those who have actually used them.
Thanks in advance.
