[QUOTE="bullfrog, post: 983741, member: 26027"] I properly torqued the bases on my 338 edge without loctite and it lasted about 50 shots before they came loose. A little medium strength loctite and she has been good to go for 2 years. This was with oversized 8-40 screws. The worst part was the sinking feeling you get when your rifle starts throwing shots for no reason. Thankfully it was an easy fix. I do not want to start a debate just wanted you to know what did and didn't work for me. I prefer the burris signature zee rings with the inserts. As for the scope. Buy the best you can afford. The only regrets I've had with scopes was not buying the one I wanted to save money only to end up getting it eventually and costing me more money. Buy once, cry once. [/QUOTE]
