[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1731442, member: 74902"] Can also tighten the rings to the scope first AND then tighten the rings to the base. This allows any slight misalignment to be moved to the ring/base connection where it will not bend the scope and allow the scope to fit in the rings for better grip and minimize ring marks on the scope. This has worked for me a couple times. Especially with steel rings and bases. [/QUOTE]
