[QUOTE="JRu, post: 248437, member: 6837"] When I bedded my two piece Talleys, I tightened them both all the way to stop and then backed off 1/8 to 1/4 turn. I tried to avoid unnecessary stress but wanted all the contact they had when new, I was simply bedding them to fill in the voids. If I put on a one piece base that was floating at the rear, I would only tighten the front screws and barely start the rear screws to keep threads open. If the front screws were tightened so the base had full contact at the front, it should align the base to hold the specified MOA taper. [/QUOTE]
