[QUOTE="DartonJager, post: 2238900, member: 95733"] Thanks for the reply. I am only considering it because I only have tools to check ring alignment and lap 1" rings but are about to install my first 30mm scopes and both are the most expensive I have ever purchased and 90% of my scopes sit in made in USA Burris rings with the plastic inserts so lapping was not a consideration and the few other NON-Burris rings I used didn't need to be lapped. I am very impatiently awaiting the arrival of a 30mm scope lapping kit that should have arrived yesterday, so I do not even know if I will need to lap my rings or not. Since Burris moved their production line to Communist China I have chosen not to buy their rings otherwise I would just use them and not bother with lapping. I have older made in USA Burris Signature Z rings on my 338wm, 300wm, 7mmstw and three 12ga slug rifles and they have never failed me or left a mark on one of my scope rings. Just a shame they placed profits above patriotism. My horizontally split rings of choice these days are Warne 514's. [/QUOTE]
