You can buy a set of great rings and bases AND a decent lapping kit for the price of a one piece base with rings.

Having said that - I don't mind spending my money with a reputable dealer and paying them to do the work properly - they will do a much better job than I could (despite this being as pretty much as simple and straight forward of a process as it gets).

The other thing is - lapping the rings inner themselves is just important to get a smooth full contact seat as it is to align everything with the lapping bars.

Also - I'd probably lap a one piece too so the scope sits snugly and doesn't move.

One piece, nevertheless are much easier and doesn't require aligning I guess.


Talley lightweights are usually between $40 and $60 for a set specifically made for your model of rifle. I don't see that as very expensive.
