What Happened To My Scope?

You can see how easily the tan paint comes off by looking @ the slides marks. If I tilt the gun, the scope slides by itself & leaves those marks.

Weird deal & curious as to what Talley comes up with. They're shipping me a new set today w/a return label. Their CS appears to be top notch!
I lap ALL rings. I have used/installed many Talley rings and to say they don’t need lapping is laughable. I actually really like their product but find they perform much better after lapping. I understand not wanting to void a warranty but I’d rather have them set and not move than play the game you are, hoping they take care of you. Also blue loctite (non permanent) all of my screws.
Is that a factory coating? If not that is probably part of the problem and they should definitely be lapped if that coating is on the inside of the rings if nothing more than to remove that coating.

Also, the Talley rings I've lapped have needed it. It's not just about the rings themselves but also the mounting on the actual gun that affects the need for lapping. You'd think a company like Talley would have that knowledge.
Odd problem... my guess is an out-of-spec tube from Burris. You have a caliper you can put to it?
