[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 766495, member: 10391"] I have my smith bed every rail I install. Now I have never stood right there and watched him but at the start talked at length with him about it and how he does it in general. He jig's the rifle up in his mill so he can properly check the rail with a dial indicator at all four corners. He beds the whole rail adjusting it with the screws till it's perfect and the excess bedding material is shoved out. The whole thing wants to be straight so when you mount the scope the rings align perfectly and if you don't have a way of checking that everything you do is a guess at best hence ring marks on your expensive scope or worse. I use Near rails as they are perfect.....but spendy! [/QUOTE]
