[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 533596, member: 24284"] Next time you mount a 1 piece base do a simple test. Place the screws in the front and snug 'um down. Now look to see If you can see a light gap between the bottom of the base and the rear bridge. Many times as not , you can. Now, do it the other way around. Place the screws in the rear and snug 'um with those in the front removed. Look for the light gap or other deviation, it might be there. Point is, everyone gets their shorts up tight about that "perfect, stress free bedding job", poor fit of a 1 piece base can and will induce stress from the top as might the scope tube in a set of rings that have it under stress. Doesn't do the scope any good, either. [/QUOTE]
