Maven RS.2 Ring Torque?

[Chris_in_Idaho]

Can the Maven RS.2 handle healthy torque on the rings, or is it a thinner/fragile tube?

I'm probably going to use a 1 piece DNZ.

They say "Our mounts are machined so true and straight it takes more torque to hold a scope in place. 25 inch pounds on ring screws for a cheap $60.00 scope. 30 to 35 inch pounds on a good quality scope. You will not hurt the threads in our mounts since we use such long ring screws."

So should I expect the RS.2 to handle 35 in-lb on the ring screws?

Don't have a Maven, but never had an issue with any scope tolerating 35in/lb from DNZ mounts.

FYI I torqued it to 35. Just as the wrench clicked over on the last screw my phone buzzed with this reply from Maven:

No chance i'd do 18" lbs
