Hi All,

I was wondering how often do you think the scope base screws should be check or re-tightened? I can easily do the scope rings, and mounting screws since it is easier to access than the scope base.

Is it bad the my scope base was little loose after about 600 -700 shots? Last week my shots were opening up and when I took of the scope, I could turn the scope base screw some more, so I tightened them up again. Now my concern is, is this normal? I have a factory 308 savage 10 fcp sr base. I now torque it to about 25 in-lbs with some loctite 242.

Thank you :)
