[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 407063, member: 3745"] That is right on with the action screws, I usually set mine at 60 in/lbs as well. Your rings and bases are probably fine as well it sounds like, but certainly take them off and re-install. You probably already know this but be sure to tighten all mounting screws and action screws like lug nuts on a wheel....... back and forth a little at a time until you reach your max torque. I normally tighten action screws to 60, bases to 30-35 (depending on the screw size), ring to base 40, rings 25-30. All in in/lbs. I'm not trying to be a know it all or imply you don't know how to do all this. I just don't know what your level of knowledge or experience is, so I'm just telling what I have learned and what works for me. Hope you get your issue solved.... [/QUOTE]
