[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 1650780, member: 104363"] I use Talley rings quite a bit, Leupolds as well. I found that my lapping bar is very handy to use as an arbor to tighten the base screws onto the receiver with a torx tool that was modified by bending it 90° and just short enough to get under the lapping bar and snug up the screws. Then I final torque. Lapping is mostly quicker as the alignment is improved. I've seen enough marred scope tubes from guys that had poi shifts and wanted my help. So I still lap them when it's feasible to get good results. The photo below was the second pass, after it was obvious the front ring had some maching errors in it and needed a second pass. [/QUOTE]
