If you buy good rifle scopes, you should have this tool. It works good.

Great product! Lapping bars are well machines and wear evenly! Works great and is a must have for anyone that is serious about accuracy and mounting optics. Now the down side, the package I received did not have lapping compound. I’m not a stickler for stuff but it was inconvenient. Luckily I had some but it was a bit of a let down there.

Just short and quick. Wheeler has always been great quality. Never really thought before about importance of scope alignment so previously never messed with something like this. It was only after getting a little more serious that I decided to purchase this kit. Once the rings were aligned (individual mounts are most important ... not so much to do with rail systems) I was surprised to see how much difference there was in the surfaces once I lapped down some of the higher areas. Don't know how much this will help with my accuracy but It for sure has to help with a more distributed force on the scope when tightening it down. Just make sure to keep the parts laid out exactly how they were lapped in and use a good torque driver to meet manufacturers specifications. (I use the Wheeler Fat Torque Driver).

Read an article about how good machinery is now and that scope rings and rifles are so close you don't need to lap the rings.I removed my scope and added the lapping alignment tools and it was obviously not perfect. Ran the lapping tool long enough to get 80% or more of scope rings bases "cleaned ". Added the lapping alignment tool to find it was right on.Mounted scope and could feel it was easier to move while adjusting level.Maybe not needed for 100 yards, start reaching out longer and you want scope level and mounted straight.Picture is during alignment, look from top and sides.

Quality product. As described. Fast shipping. Fair price.

This tool set gives you the tools you need to install a scope properly. Follow the directions carefully and you will be happy with the results. I do not think there is a better way to install "Tally Style" scope rings without this set. Once your Reciever is drilled and tapped. This set will allow you to square and align the rings to hold your expensive investment in good "Glass". Do it Right!
