[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 510166, member: 3745"] 1) No. 2) Yes. Some are steel, some are aluminum, some are machined to much higher tolerance than others...... Badger Ordnance, Night Force are the two I like most, but there are certainly other good ones out there. 3) A 1 piece rail will add some additional rigidity to your action (although not big deal in my opinion) The rail gives you much greater flexibility in where you position your scope/rings and will allow you to move it forward or back a notch without removing it from the rings. It can be used to mount other devices such as levels or ACIs. If you use rails on multiple rifles you can easily switch scopes from one to the other without having to un-mount the scope from the rings. They are available from 0 to 40 moa slope to make full use of your scope adjustment range if you are "dialing". I'm sure there are others, but these are the major things that come to mind right off.
