If the rings slide easily onto the dovetail of your rifle, you don't have to worry about spreading the rings BKL's are made to be used with both 3/8" and 11mm dovetails. On some 11mm dovetails one will have to spread the rings slightly to get them to slip on.
Some folks have trouble stripping certain BLK rings during installation. BLK sends cap screws with their rings that have been blunted so the screws can be used to spread the rings (without damaging the end of the threads) to fit onto the dovetail, if necessary. I replaced the provided cap screws with unmodified cap screws, which allow the fastener to grip an additional couple of threads. This will help prevent any tendency to strip. Remember not to exceed 35 in-lbs of torque.
