So I've never done this but I buddy of mine who shoots PRS recommended that to do this to prevent recoil slippage.

I was always under the assumption that if it's a quality mount and torqued correctly, this problem shouldn't arise.

Anyone mount their scopes like this?
 
Like all the users said with quality rings and proper torque the scope shouldn't slip. Spuhr recommends Rosin on large calibers so just do what they say. If I'm running separate rings I do try to get the stance as wide as possible based on available rail length and my eye relief.
