Aesthetics or Functionality

I’m running Talley one piece mounts on two 2500X actions. I told Talley they fit but I don’t think they updated their website. I can get a mount number if you’re interested. I prefer one piece mounts on everything. Less screws to come loose.

Whats complicated about a pic rail ? Its fewer pieces than dovetails. It allows more mounting flexibility.
Unneeded for any BR, ugly, always potential for misalignment, for weight class guns unneeded weight , you will never see one on a CFBR gun.

Those are elegant, have some BAT one piece but frankly when it’s time for serious maintenance or barrel swaps they’re a PIA. Dovetail bases, rings, pretty reliable and if you ever need to swap scopes pretty idiot proof, that’s what all my RFBR guns wear.

How do you misalign a ONE PIECE item? Thats literally impossible. Now TWO dovetail mounts could be misaligned.

Weight, weight class, "unneeded" have nothing to do with aesthetics.

Never seeing a pic rail on a CFBR is irrelevant.

Your only salient point is YOU think they are ugly. Which is fine. I disagree.

And its indisputable pic rails are highly functional, adjustable, allow for more mouting options and are impossible to misalign

Impossible? Study up there sharpshooter.
You know how often don’t fit properly because action holes are often less than exact.
Usually why high precision outfits usually run two piece systems with rings either bedded or lapped in.
You’re playing “sniper” ringing a gong is one thing, set up for BR, entirely another.
Much to learn, you do.
P.S. read the OP, he ruled out a rail, I got zero skin in the game.

There's no need to start calling me names like "sharpshooter" , sir. Show yourself the respect of not going there. Ok ? And there's no need to insult me with terms like "playing sniper." You don't know my capabilities and you don't know my accomplishments and you don't know the quality of my equipment.You don't know anything about me , sir.

It's wrong of you to presume to make yourself my teacher.

Its all beneath dignity. So stop it.

Now....

If the actions screw holes are out of alignment , that's not the problem of the picatinny rail. The action is garbage and the pic rail is fine. And if the action screw holes are out of alignment , every single mount, dovetail or picatinny one piece or two pieces are going to be out of alignment.

But all else being trued up, it is 100 % impossible to misalign a one piece item.
