[QUOTE="birdiemc, post: 1583996, member: 29632"] Just did this on 2 rifles. The first one just as called for in the article, but the second one there was a very minor misalignment front to rear, talley one piece rings. Just lapping them could have allowed the scope to properly align, but to make up for the excessive material removed required the bedding compound (jb weld). I ended up applying to both halves of the rings, and achieved a perfect fit. I see no problem with this method, it results in the rings being a perfect fit to the tube that was used to bed them. And I would argue that it does not increase pressure, in fact the opposite would hold true as the pressure would be distributed evenly over the entire surface, eliminating any pressure points. Is it something everybody should be made to do? No, folks have been getting by just fine for decades without, but I like to eliminate any room for potential error I possibly can. [/QUOTE]
