[QUOTE="preacherman, post: 62458, member: 2494"] Fourinone ...regarding rings "digging into scope"... not sure if anyone else would agree, but for the last few scopes I've mounted, I put masking tape in the top and bottom ring halves... this provides excellent grip & prevents the scope from moving once you've leveled everything; later, when you remove the screws, you'll notice how tightly the scope is held with the tape...once scope is removed, just use a little lighter fluid on a flannel patch to wipe the tape residue from the tube and it looks like new... I have never found a ring mark when using this process; I prefer this over lapping, unless there is significant outage... even then, minimal lapping + masking tape for me... best protection I know of for the scope tube... hope this helps...
