Wheeler lapping kit or something better?

Looking at buying a wheeler kit for lapping my rings. $100-150 depending on where I buy it. Comes with 1” and 30 mm bars and all the other goodies needed. Does wheeler make a good kit? Are there better lapping kits in the same ballpark price?

I use a wheeler and it works just fine.

Brownells makes a similar kit, but i’m Sure that one is fine.

I have a wheeler kit and I find that it works just fine on the scopes that I have mounted .

I've used the same wheeler kit to do well over 100 scopes and have had no issues.

I have the Wheeler, worth the money. I am happy with it.

The levels that come with it suck. Get the professional levels as well. Much better.

I've used the Wheeler kit a lot now, it does work great.
