[QUOTE="skipglo, post: 2282221, member: 87776"] Loctite, 3 rings, But don't OVER TORQUE the rings...you can crush the internals...one of the first signs of over torque is the parallax gets stiff...next sign....well...it's a good it's not an expensive scope!!!! Good luck....50s are a ton of fun...but definitely present new challenges!.....One other thing..my scope is torqued to 24 inch pounds. .I always check torque before shooting and about every 10 rds....scopes were never designed for FORWARD PULL created by muzzle breaks so they present new challenges to the manufacturers!
