[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 510129, member: 3745"] 1) No, the rail will not affect ejection 2) Yes, some are better. Some are steel, some are aluminum, some are machined to tighter tolerances, etc. Night Force, Badger Ordnance, Ken Farrel are some options for good quality rails. Badger is my favorite, and that is not a complete list of "good" rails by any means. 3) A rail will add a little stiffness to your action, although that is not a major consideration to me. With a rail you have a greater range of options with where you mount the scope/rings. You can attach other devices to the rail such as levels or ACI. Rails are available with anything from 10 to 40 moa slope to maximize the use of your scope adjustment range if you doing dial ups. If you have multiple rifles with rails it is easy to swap scopes from one rife to another without having to un-mount the scope from the rings. I could probably go on, but those are the major ones that come to mind. [/QUOTE]
