How to Lap Riflescope Rings to Improve Holding Power | MidwayUSA Gunsmithing
This video demonstrates the process of lapping rifle scope rings, a gunsmithing technique to improve holding power and accuracy. Larry Potterfield of MidwayUSA explains how using a Wheeler Engineering Scope Lapping Kit, with a steel bar and lapping compound, can smooth out imperfections in the rings. This process increases surface contact, preventing scope damage and shifts in point of impact, ultimately ensuring a more stable and reliable shooting platform. The explanation is clear and focuses on practical application for firearm owners.
