[QUOTE="gslinger, post: 2376170, member: 47393"] [B]SCOPE RING ALIGNMENT TOOL KIT - 30 mm and 1 inch. (includes One Set Of Each) OK I check this out and found a video of a guy using this kit on youtube . He used rings and a 1piece mount. Both were on a rail. He had the exact same results as I did. His base and rings were said to not need lapping if used them together (same as mine) On the rings the coller would not pass. On the 1 piece mount,The coller pass with no bump.Like they were on the single piece lapping rod. By turning my alignment bars around and butting them,putting a ring to pass between the two. I can tighten ring till it can run tight and smooth. This should be no different,except I can adjust ring tightness.[/B] Thanks for showing me this.I was able to a see video and see that someone else got same resuts.(probably better kit as it was designed it for this purpose of transfering ring from one bar to another bar.). Everything I tried so far was expensive rail and rings.Found an old pair of weaver 30mm steel rings. I never used these for anything before.So I mounted them on the stiller rail. The ring would not pass with no amount of reasonable force.(YOU SHALL NOT PASS). I will test this on a 1 piece mount ,When it gets here in a couple of weeks. This kit is expensive compared to the wheeler kit. Wheeler kit has torque driver. Also purchased wheeler scope kit with barrel leveler mount. If you need scope mounted cabela's will do it. Or you send to gunsmith and wait in line there. I bought good bases and rings (I never lapped any). I bought meopta and nightforce scopes. Never questioned till I took off nightfoce and saw ring marks. ARTS is canadian company that build actions percision rifles and make parts. and sells guns scopes and supply,s [/QUOTE]
