Why would you want to lap your scope rings? Have you ever looked at the way the bottom half of your rings look after mounting on the rifle and base? You might be shocked or suprised at what you see. I found out a few years back (more than I'll admit) after installling a muzzle break, the customer came back from the range with his back ring 1/2'" off the base. After checking everything found the rings were not fitting the scope properly. Adding the muzzlebreak which causes the rifle to come back more on the horizantal plane the rings would not take the recoil. Have checked the fit ever since. And to my surprise found NONE of the fit good, now lapp them all. You can see what it does to the scope tube by hitting them a couple of stroke with a lapping bar and compound. It's mind over matter, if you don't mind it don't matter.
