[QUOTE="Aussie, post: 19464, member: 2447"] Here's a tip for those of you who hate ring marks on the tube of your expensive scope .Wrap the section of tube underneath the rings with 2 layers of teflon thread sealing tape (plumbers tape) . After wrapping I find that the rings grip the tube much better than metal on metal and that scopes no longer slip under heavy recoil .Adhesive tapes aren't any good as after a few months the glue deteriorates and acts like a lubricant when subjected to pressure from the rings .
