[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 2564747, member: 104363"] If it were mine, I would torque it again, mark the head of the bolt to the chassis (torque stripe in aviation speak) to confirm it's not backing off and if the screw can rotate (yet again after firing) under the same torque, the screw is stretching permanently. That would indicate the screw is taking the recoil load in shear and tension. Should only be tension if the action isn't slipping. Then, I would epoxy bed it and using brand new screws. Too bad they don't sell a higher tensile screw (?) [/QUOTE]
