ironbender, So you don't understand what referring to yourself in the third person means? I understand the third person. I don't refer to myself in the third person. What does this have to do with Talley rings?

I absolutely would not use Talleys without lapping. Have mounted over 20 rifles with Talley LW's without lapping or any scratches on the scope tube. Best application for the Kimber Montana! Life contains many mysteries.
My home is the "sanctuary residence" for my firearms.

Yes, I am wondering about that too.

On my 5th or 6th set of Talleys. No alignment or pinching/marking problems experienced and not expecting any.

Life contains many mysteries. I have sold numerous Leupold scopes on the 'fire after mounting them in Talley rings and none of them had ring marks. I must be one lucky SOB since I never lapped any of them. How much does the outside diameter of scope tubes vary from manufacturer to manufacturer?

You would be surprised (or maybe not), even in some pretty expensive scopes.
As I wrote in my latest optics book, scope mount manufacturers often get blamed for the cumulative dimensional errors of other stuff, plus errors in mounting.
