Integrated dove tail vs screwed in bases on 223

[Panhandler80]

I have these order and am inclined to go this route. How many folks go with dovetail? Will have virtually zero recoil, so I’m sure dovetail would be fine, but image below just seems more secure. I don’t plan on swapping optics frequently, if ever.

Tikka dovetail rings will have a recoil pin that goes in the hole in the top of the receiver. In my opinion they are way more skookum than the rings that depend on the shear strength of tiny 6-48 screws.
