Folks have been using them for years.
Don't use your scope to turn the mounts. Use a rod (wood is ok, but metal is better) for leverage to turn the mounts.
I would use just a drop of purple threadlocker (the lowest strength) on the azimuth adjustment screws. Center your scope and then use the azimuth adjustment to get it boresighted.
The only thing you might find is that with a short scope, you might not have the front to back room to properly set up your scope for your personal cheek weld. That's a big reason that many folks go with one piece rails.
Also, unless you are using Burris signature Zee rings, I would spend the time (and money to buy the tools, if you don't already have them)to true and lap the rings.
That's my two cents.
