[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 29799, member: 66"] I mount a bunch of bases and scopes in a weeks time. Primarily all Badger hardware. I use red LocTite on the screws and use it to "bed" the base to the receiver also. Torqued to Badger's specs(15 in. lbs) I do not use any on the ring screws but I torque them to spec also. 65 for the crossbolt and 15 in. lbs for cap screws. And they (LocTited screws) come out with no trouble. [/QUOTE]
