Have you measured the scope tube itself? Is it undersized somehow?

Are the ring halves bottoming out on each other somehow? If so, you could file a bit of space in there for them to clamp tighter.

Something is out of spec with the rings IMHO.

Send back to Burris or lap the mating surfaces of the rings till they shine uniformly. A piece of 600 grit wet or dry on a piece of glass will work. I would then use form-a-gasket from the auto supply store on the inside and outside of the inserts. This is stickier and tougher than rubber cement and I have not had one slip on any I have used this on. It also helps prevent ring rash but that is not an issue with the Z rings.
