Zero problems

The full length bar has my attention, I've used the the two piece set ups to lay in the rings to check for alignment before lapping, but never a full length bar...interesting!!

A straight edge , square or a sting all that is needed. It seams you have checked everything but the rings. Take the top half off put the bolts in less the top half of the rings . Using the bolts as a guide . Compaire one side and the other side to the center of the barrel. Larry

Progress has been made and I believe I figured the problem out. I pulled the bolt from the receiver. On the back of the reciever there is a flat spot that I set a level on. So I leveled the rifle in the vise, no cant right or left. Set the level on my pic rail, and found it to be canting to the right by a 1/4 bubble. When I called Talley and explained that to them they said when they had to open up the holes on the rail to accommodate the 8-40 screws for my reciever the rail may have got drilled wrong. I put the rail on a level surface and laid the level on top and had the same result as it mounted on my reciever. I don't believe the holes were drilled on an angle, I think it wasn't milled flat. So Talley is sending me a different mounts and rings to match to see if this alleviates the issue!

"may have got drilled wrong"? :

Yes "may have got drilled wrong!" It's possible that it could have been on an angle during the drilling process? Maybe not seated on one side in the vise? Hard to say! Lots of variables in the machining world!

Variables with the machining I have done is totally un actable . We have blue prints and all our products must met the standards in the blue print. Some of our machining have zero tolerance . Larry

I agree with you Larry, tolerances must be met. With all of the technology in today's world I'm actually surprised any of my parts were off for this set up! I can admit myself I've ruined a few parts in my day, but started over and got them right. The machines do what they're programmed to do and one variable in that respect is human error. A chipped cutter or insert if not caught right away can ruin a whole batch of parts. It happens everyday!
