    Scope Wrap under Rings?

    I've finally decided to use a self-adhesive elastic tape/wrap on all my scopes to protect them from bumps/scratches etc.

    Can I tape the whole tube so that one layer of wrap is also between rings and tube...or should I leave that area unwrapped so the rings torque down directly onto the scope tube?

    I've never wrapped a scope before and was thinking if I have the scope wrap under the rings wouldn't it protect it from scope ring marks?
    Or would it mess with the tight CNC clearances and possibly result in scope slippage under recoil?
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.
