Is it that tight of a fit?
Talking 1" scope here.

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...
