I love the way they look especiallly on remington rifles. I know they are strong and I really wish they were made of steel. But is there a caliber limit to them? Would you guys put them on hard kicking calibers?
I emailed them about putting them on my remington 300 RUM and their response was "go for our vertical split ring style". So they never really answered my question.
Thoughts?

I have a set on a 45-70 that has a steady diet of heavy handloads. Also on a 7 lbs 300 wsm. So far my sets are holding up just fine. The 45-70 has over 500 rounds with them, the 300 wsm between 200 and 300.

I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night. LOL. Mine were on a 300 WSM X Bolt and did fine.
