Has anyone and I mean anyone ever had any bad experiences with Burris XTR rings? What weight do they torque down to?

I think Cheaptrick has some. They have been recommended often however I either use Badger Ordnance or drop back to WARNE which have worked well for me. I do have some Burris Signature rings with the plastic insert and like them very much.

Most rings caps are around 15 inch lbs.

 The Burris instructions say 20lbs torque for each of the 6 top screws, & 65 to 100 in/lbs torque for the 1/2" base hex nut.  I probably do mine a little less & go by feel. These numbers are also listed as '"recommended torque settings".
