[QUOTE="260nut, post: 754463, member: 40931"] I am not understanding you argument. If you choose to not lap, that is your prerogative. I don't like ring marks, so if I can take 45 minutes and a little elbow grease to eliminate a misalignment, I am gonna do it. I may decide to upgrade scopes in the future and will need to sell this one so I would like it to still be in good condition. If I damage it during a hunt then so be it, but I generally take very good care of my equipment. I see no reason to knowingly induce cosmetic damage when it can be avoided. Is it going to affect accuracy or function? Maybe, maybe not, but it is a FACT that my scope is more precisely mounted, with no stress, and more clamping surface than it would have been without lapping. The proof is in the pictures. [/QUOTE]
