Is it that tight of a fit? Talking 1" scope here. Mark [ August 17, 2014, 09:08 AM: Message edited by: Lone Howl ]

Pretty much all I use on bolt guns and the only time I've had one leave a mark is after I lapped it.

Mark, I've used Talley one pc. rings a bunch. If there's an issue with the scope tube fit/binding in the rings, I'd wager the issue could be traced back to the action's base screws being tapped slightly off kilter, and/or the base portion of the Talleys in need of bedded...
