[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1651374, member: 9308"] To which was added: You people kill me. [U][B]The OP already has mounts and rings to work on his rifle.[/B][/U] That isn't even why he posted in the first place. Note the TITLE of the post. Then folks got all over him about needing to 'lap his rings'...even though there is no 40mm 'lapping tool', for which [U]Clifflopez[/U] and [U]Therifleman556[/U] had NOTHING to say about. But I get criticized for recommending 1" and 30mm rings for others to consider (not the OP)? Nice. :p The OPs mount and rings are going to work FINE 'as is'. He bought top quality gear and will have no troubles when using it. Shame on folks for 'getting in his head' about potential problems when there would be none. And even if he bought a 'ring-lapping-kit', which one EXACTLY has the 40mm pieces he'll need? (I'll help you here - NONE.) As for my comments about the Burris Signature rings (w/polymer inserts) the conversation had already degraded to a "[U][I]you must lap[/I][/U]" vs "[B][I]lapping is unnecessary[/I][/B]" directed NOT at the OP anymore, but to anyone mounting anything, to which I was adding to the very small chorus that the Burris rings remove those hassles and worries altogether while ensuring your scope never gets 'ring marks'. We were no longer trying to solve the OPs '[U]non-problem[/U]' of mounting his 40mm scope. And to think, he just posted to point out that the difference between using G1 and G7 BCs really weren't that big of a deal when shooting out to 1000 yards, for which I'd like to thank [URL='https://www.longrangehunting.com/members/comancheria.110141/'][COLOR=#000000]Comancheria.[/COLOR][/URL] [/QUOTE]
