A more reasonable question would probably be how does one manage to keep those Weaver top straps from scratching the scope when you snap them on? Put a strip of paper in the ring before snapping over. Slide it out after snapping over.

I always put them on the right side because that's how they were in the magazine ads.
Leupold QRWs are mounted with the levers on the left because they hang out so much. They catch everything, pretty much, so my next set will be the PRWs.

Thin, glossy business cards, etc work well - slick and tougher than plain paper.

A dollar bill works really well, they are made from a very tough paper, have used that trick for years.

According to Hoyle the screws should be on the left north of the equator and on the right south of the equator.

Always put them on the right side on my leverguns. Functionally no difference, but they seem to look right on the right side.
Always remember that you are unique, just like everyone else.
