Warne actually says that their rings don't need lapping. I still lap them though.Question. About to mount a Leupold onto Warne rings. When I look at the inside of any rings, I see those machined lines that they say you should lap. To me those lines look like there purpose is to hold the scope tighter when tightened up. Anyone else think that?

Loctite on the scope?If your worried about a bump while hunting I'd gravitate towards a drop of blue loctite in the rings vs leaving marks on the scope.

Sure you can check them, but quality rings do not require lapping. If they do , they need to be returned and replaced by manufacturer.Even quality rings need lapped sometimes. It never hurts to at least check them.
THAT "Goofy Mount" on my TRG as you call it, is a Cold Shot Precision Mounting System, it's design make's it possible to dial in the needed extreme range requirements beyond a fixed -20 MOA rail mount! And yes, every thing on this rifle is hand fitted and lapped for a precision fit, and it's shooting performance stretches the cartridges limits to the extreme!Yes if we are talking Leupold mark IV scopes and Leupold rings then lapping is a necessity.
If the military is truly using the best than they would just put everything in a spuhr mount
The way that NF Beast is mounted to that goofy rail on the TRG probably does require lapping and bedding of the rail too.
Happy scope mounting everyone.
Do what makes you feel confident in your setup
