[QUOTE="Magnumdude, post: 344485, member: 751"] I'd go easy on the Rosin and the torque. Almost every set of rings I've seen recommend 15 in/lb of torque. You had yours tightened "farmer tight," a term coined by John Barsness. I think the only reason you didn't damage the scope tube was you lapped the rings. Even so, I think a lesser scope tube would have been crushed. [/QUOTE]
