Replacement Rail and Scope Mount Screws - 6-48 Torx T15 Screws
No markings of any kind on the rings. Here they are held on to the rifle with my new stainless screws which I turned the heads of this morning. They still need to be torqued up. Might get the black permanent marker out before I do that. Everything else on the rifle is black so...
Please excuse the following observation as it's not a criticism of you but rather the ring manufacturer: I don't like the following lock-up detail:

Hi, I’d love to know why?

Indeed, they are not the highest quality rings. I wanted to use these which I had on my TAC A1 but sadly they put the scope too high for the max adjustment on my cheek riser without it impeding the full retraction of the bolt, and I think there was another issue with them as well but I can't remember what it was. These A.R.M.S. 34mm rock solid beauties are for sale if anyone is interested.

To my eye the clamp should pull-up squarer to the ring body but perhaps I'm simply unfamiliar with the acceptable tolerances of this type of ring & base arrangement.

Is this because these don't give as much conetrol as your mount of choice?
I've corrected that for you.

Ps: On this occasion it's actually nothing to do with a dislike of rails and sticky-out rings!

It's been a long week and it's only Tuesday.

The torque element is normal for this type. Could be sportsmatch.
What mill is that Tim?
An old Belgium machine I have been using since I was 14! Friction collets, the vice is quite good and I made that 90/45 angle piece when I was 17 as part of my apprenticeship. The lathe Dad bought 2 years previous and I had to use a stick to press the on/off switch lol
Can you mount the pavement?But I'm not mounting the Hubble Space Telescope!

The tilting fixture is very handy I bet. I'm just getting bits and pieces together, a small lathe, a mill, and I got a nice old Cunliffe and Croome dividing head for not much off eBay last year. I had the lathe set up to do something else hence wanting to just buy some bolts but it won't take long to set it up again and it turned those bolt heads nicely.
It is a 3 axis compound vice, an apprentice piece which one the chap I brought it off at a boot sale for £20.00 I gave it to a friend who has a fixture for drilling out "nipples" for BP guns. I borrow it back when needed.
The mill earns it's keep.
EN16 Shaft for a screener, I was remembering as an apprentice I had to stop work at 9.30 take the orders for the rolls buy the tea/coffee/sugar/milk
Go back get the rolls then get moaned at as the lady would forget something (no pickle) lol
Yeah, OK, you were first… in my defence it was an early start for me & my 6th on the trot, I’m a bit tired
