[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 775692, member: 39764"] You can, I do it all the time. Just did a set on a Savage Model 19. There is a definite procedure and you can't mix the halves once lapped, but it can be done. I like Warne rings as well. Use them all the time. Warne Maxima's and Talley. If you want the procedure, send me a PM and I'll detail it for you. Answering Engineering 101's claim about expansion coefficients between aluminum and steel, my comment is, that does apply with large surface areas and mass but not with scope rails and rings, at least not in my many years of mounting scopes. I apply threadlocker, torque them and forget them. never had one set come back. [/QUOTE]
