[QUOTE="Glock 40, post: 3295765, member: 32"] First if your using high end rings and steel bases, they shouldn't need or be lapped imo. That said by having the two independent pieces it is giving you more freedom in alignment of the rings independently. It lets you move each piece to get your vertical and horizontals alignments as perfect as possible while having the best contact on the gun and scope. It allows tightening the bases and the ability to cheat one way or the other (splitting the difference). Also you want to reduce the amount of material you will need to remove during lapping. If you use the lapping bar and set it on the bases it wont be as accurate as using the alignment bars independently. Using the bar alone isn't different than using the scope for alignment other than its solid. If you want to test it try mounting the rings with the lapping bar. Then remove it and the see what the alignment bars look like. [/QUOTE]
