There's 27 pics of broken tally's in this thread, and you want to argue the definition of often?
There are 10's of thousands out there in perfect condition including the over 50 between Big Whoop and I mentioned on this thread (among many others). Threads like this bring out those wanting to brag about their 1-off failures so are statistically unimpressive.
So yes, "often" is BS. "Occasionally" would be a far more accurate adjective. Words and math mean something.
Technically you are correct but given how simple rings are and how important their function is their failure rate should be close to zero. The failure rate for the Talley LW is low statistcally but still unacceptably high. I've never heard of any other rings that failed that weren't subject to incorrect assembly or abuse of some sort. I know of a set of Al rings with the 4 screw caps that failed because a screw was lost and a different head type screw was put in it's place - giving an uneven torque down that eventually cracked the ring in service. Talleys just fail, and often enough to not be worth the risk.
For some.
True, but I personnaly now eliminate that risk by not using Talley LW. None of my other brands of rings have failed. I liked the look of the Talleys but never really considered the weight savings as an important factor. They failed on me so they're gone. If others don't mind a porential failure issue then that's their choice.

That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied.
