Do you always lap your scope rings?

[QUOTE="barrelnut50, post: 1731338, member: 86350"] I always lap the rings, use RingTrue tape and use blue loctite on the screws. [URL]https://www.highpoweroptics.com/ringtrue%C3%82%E2%84%A2-tape-three-scopes-p-24944.html[/URL] Using this process, I never have problems with scopes slipping on magnum or 50BMG rifles. I don't have ring marks on any of my scope tubes. Almost always the lapping process shows that even expensive rings were out of alignment. Once I realized that lapping was essential anyways, I stopped paying >$120/pair for rings. [/QUOTE]
