[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 2157134, member: 4809"] Here's a good video talking about when lapping may be necessary: [MEDIA=youtube]4xRjLjzaMf8[/MEDIA] You can get by without lapping in most cases. But once I saw how out of alignment rings become once mounted to a base (yes even quality rings and bases), the need for some lapping became apparent to me. Again, just enough to substantially increase the amount of purchase between ring and tube. More contact means less torque necessary to keep scope from moving on you. [/QUOTE]
