I've used the quarter ribs with pretty good success. However, there have been some reported issues with misaligned ribs or even flexing. On my current #1B (Lam./ SS .300 Win Mag) I removed the quarter rib and got a zero degree pic rail made up from Richard Near. With my big scope mounted up, it is rock solid. I realize some would cry foul for going that route but I think it looks good (actually).
