What is the most common cause of scope ring marks? I assume it to be over tightening the bolts, but wanted to hear from you. I have been seeing a lot of talk about ring marks lately in the classifieds, and wanted to know the source.

I would say over tightening is the culprit most of the time.

Slight mis-alignment plus overtightening.

Cheap rings don’t help either.

Back when I was a kid and used $5 Tasco/Simmons rings I would get a lot of ring marks. I now use super high-end $20 rings and never have a problem. $$$ fixes everything.. thumbup

I’d say cheap rings and mis-alignment is the two biggest factors.


If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.
