[QUOTE="MontanaJack, post: 1650765, member: 25389"] Spending thousands on a scope... yes, I'm going to confirm alignment before clamping all that money into a couple of vices that could distort or bend the tube.... Precision machining has contributed tremendously to the extended distances we can shoot in this era. However, nothing is fool proof. Notice the two pointed rounds in the lapping kit shown earlier in this post? Very simple, mount one in each ring. If the two points touch, alignment is not at issue. However, that doesn't say anything about area of contact. I've mounted many scopes using all the name brands. Haven't had the points kiss yet. If the points don't kiss, you're going to distort the scope tube. Period. [/QUOTE]
