I recently bought a Winchester model 70 300 win mag and my scope (redfield revolution 4-12x40) arrived today. I took the gun to my uncle who is an avid gun collector as I have never personally mounted a scope before this gun. He questioned the rings I purchased which were leupold rings model #49901 which only have a pair of screws per ring, and he thinks I should have rings with four screws/ring as he believes the rings I currently have will not withstand the recoil. I generally take the mans advice but I am wondering if anyone on here has used them for high power rounds, and what their thoughts are on this. Thanks is and vane for the help
 
The two screw Leupold rings had no issues holding the scope on my 300RUM , or 338x8mmremmag rifles, which produce quite a bit more recoil than a 300win mag.
