[QUOTE="Lemmer, post: 2007407, member: 115975"] Thanks for the replies, they are appreciated. But I need to clarify - its not a problem with the rings, its with the mounting holes drilled into the receiver. After lapping the rings, they are perfectly aligned. But that alignment is offcenter due to the screw holes being off slightly for one of the mounts (I think the front one). I don't think bedding would change that. My question is whether the alignment is off-center too much to be able to correct for it using the internal adjustment of the scope, and if not, how I should level the scope. And I guess it would be good to know if there are other problems it could cause. Maybe I just need to mount it and shoot it, but I thought I'd check to see if anyone had any advice first. Thanks!
