[QUOTE="WapitiBob, post: 980426, member: 38015"] The chances of getting a set of rings, concentric, cylindrical, and planar within say .002 when screwed to a one piece base are just about zero. Getting rings that close when screwed to individual bases, screwed to a factory action, are a whole lot less. Checking the accuracy of those componants with a $1500 piece of thin wall aluminum tube ie; scope body, isn't something I care to do. I bed the base then lap the rings. [/QUOTE]
