Scope ring lapping thread???

[AlNyhus]

So......what happened to the 'Scope Ring Lapping' thread?

Forum Boss: The member who started the Lapping thread, Mike in Oregon, deleted the thread by deleting his first post.

Guessing the OP deleted it… only way I know of to make an entire thread disappear short of via the Forum Boss.

I think the consensus was that guys like you are dead wrong. It was obvious that you have no idea what you are talking about even though you presented actual photographic evidence.

Either that or it was a he who screams the loudest from the mountain top has to be correct scenario while ignoring evidence to the contrary.

Did that about sum it up?

I thought guys were getting a good demonstration of what actually happens with tolerance stacking. I also feel like we were educating a lot of people who never considered lapping necessary.

I was searching for the thread also. I don't believe the OP has the ability to delete a thread Only FB. JMO

I thought it was very informative. I don’t shoot competition, just a hunter wanting good accuracy and wanting to take my reloading skills up a notch or 2. I’ve lapped rings before but had never heard of bedding scope rings. Good info to me.

The original poster of a thread can delete it, and the entire thread goes along with it.

Does anyone know the diameter of the tool used to lap the 1' rings. TKS

In this kit, which obviously has been used a time or 12, the diameter is .997" along the entire length.

I could take it out another decimal place, but someone would probably have a kitten fit that my micrometer hasn't had a calibration certification in the last year and demand to know the ambient air temperature.

I'm calling that close enough for scope rings.

 

[DShortt]

Well, hang on. Server doesn't like the file.size.

 

[DShortt]

There we go.

 

[DShortt]

I don't bed my rings, only the bases. So perhaps one of the guys who do bed their rings will chime in.

I'd be interested in that information as well.

I wanted to watch that video. I guess I should have when I had the opportunity .
