[QUOTE="XLR Industries, post: 2550856, member: 123236"] I would say if the rifle was not grouping well then you could look at the rings and torque setting. As long as you are running the Recommended torque from Vortex then that shouldn't have anything to do with the tracking. The only way I could really see them being an issue is if you had them over-torqued or if they were super out of alignment and causing a pinch point in the scope. Typically the only way that this would happen is if you were running a base that isn't straight on a 700 or other factory action. I ran into this in the past on one of my 700s so I bed them all now and just run a spur mount. That way any misalignment is going to be taken up by that Spuhr and not transferred up into the scope. It is really just a bandaid on the issue but I know that if I put that scope on any rifle it will always be stress-free! If you are running a custom action then I think the Spuhr is probably overboard and you should be able to just run some Hawkins and be just fine (and save you a little weight). [/QUOTE]
