Back in 1970's had a 10" octagon 44 mag .Mounted a LEUOPLD 2 POWER SCOPE. With BHUEHLER rings and mounts.Loaded 250 gr swc with 2400 powder.Was NEW at reloading .It took only 3 ROUNDS to destroy the rings and mounts.My shooting friend said stop your going to kill your self . What an experience .Found out the scale wasn't level lesson learned.If you don't know what you are doing leave it alone .
