[QUOTE="300winnie, post: 173776, member: 4372"] Well $#*%.... I just set into checking my mounts and rings to see if they were tight and guess what? All the ring screws were tight...as expected. First mount screw I tried to tighten seemed slightly loose (rear screw on front mount). The rest seemed tight. So, I decided I would take them all out and put loctite on them and reset. When I got them all out the threaded hole that I took the loose screw out of sure seemed shallow. I looked at the screw and sure enough it had sheared in half...probably when I set it originally...probably causing me all of my frustration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The only thing that has me wondering if that is not the problem is it doesn't look like there is any wear on the blueing to signify it moving, but I'm sure it doesn't take much to move P.O.I. much. I'm guessing I found my problem...now I have to figure out how to get the other one out. Any ideas? Thanks for all your help and suggestions so far...maybe we are getting somewhere now. [/QUOTE]
