[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 2258391, member: 14204"] If you are referring to my comment, yes, that is exactly what I meant because twisting/oscillation is greater the longer the unsupported main tube is. The turret area is probably the weakest part of the scope and will benefit the most with rings evenly spaced for even pressure as possible to maximize the dampening augmentation of the oscillation/flexing of the main tube. There are LRH rifle builders that use two sets of rings. In addition, the one-piece scope mount system, like the Spuhr is not designed to mount the scope as far apart as possible but rather around the turret area. BTW, all of the components will flex.
