    Rifle Scopes Single rings or one piece mount?

    What is the advantage of a one piece mount over single rings? Does it mean I don't need to lap the rings? Does it hold it more securely? Less prone for mounting errors? looking at either the vortex precision rings or the badger one piece in 34mm for a razor HD gen II. I have the lap bar...
