Hello,
I believe this would be the correct place for this. So I’ve read through the forums, saw some people bed their pic rails and optics in the rings. Do more research and there’s a big opinion that manufacturing tolerances have gotten low enough that it’s not needed, some say it’s still needed. So, the point of this post is I’d like to hear from two groups of people if possible to get a better picture for myself on if it’s worth setting up and doing.
The first group of people I’d like to weigh in are the people who have bedded rails and scopes in the past and have stopped doing it and why. The second would be people who currently do it and their justification for it, preferably with examples that are recent (within 5 years or so). I understand it’ll come down to personal preference and risk assessment. Just would like a bit more knowledge to sway me one way or the other.
Thank you for your time
