[QUOTE="Idahoan, post: 481197, member: 29176"] Is there any practical advantage of a 1 piece base over a 2 piece base? I understand that the 1 piece (if machined properly) pretty much guarantees the rings will be aligned properly and minimize stress on the scope, but does it do anything to the rifle itself? I imagine that by attaching a 1 piece base it could theoretically add stress to the barrel if it expands or contracts differently from the barrel it's attached to. [/QUOTE]
