[QUOTE="McMillan, post: 587552, member: 34843"] Long range hunters are familiar with and more comfortable with a P rail than the standard hunter. We include the Talley bases because we have 8-40 scope base holes instead of the more normal 6-28's. We do this on our tactical rifles which more commonly use heavier scopes and tend to have more of an issue sheering scope base screws off. In order not to have to make two seperate action we use the same G30 for both hunting and tactical, this the 8-40's. Just so it's not a pain for the customer to find bases to fit, we provide them, Talley being as good as you get. As for lapping rings, with NightForce scopes and Talley rings we don't feel it necessary to lap the rings. Also, you can take the scopes of with their lever locks and put them back on as many times as you would like and never change poi. At least not at a hundred yards which is how tested them for my trip to Africa. One more thing about lapping scope rings. The rifle I sent LTLR has not had the scope rings lapped. Lets see if his report picks anything up regarding this issue. Of course it has a 20MOA Picatiny rail made of 6061T6 aluminum, hard black anodized and a steel pin behind what should be the front ring lug, NF rings and a NF scope. [/QUOTE]
