[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 68848, member: 3249"] If you don't have the dovetail wrench you'll have to tighten the ring down on a pipe or something round and turn it. As far as alignment goes, just make sure the scope sets down in the rings. You can buy fancy tools for perfect alignment and lapping the rings, but as long as the scope sets all the way to the bottom of the rings with no daylight showing it should be OK. Don't force it down. When the alignment is right it will just fit. [/QUOTE]
