[QUOTE="Brad7348, post: 2074633, member: 70334"] good point! This happened to my brother. His rail came with screws that were a hair too long and even through they were tight, they had bottomed out and the rail was not snug, I could wiggle the rail with my hand with a fair amount of pressure. Turns out the screw was bottoming out on the [B]barrel[/B] threads inside the action rather than snugging the the head of the screw on the the rail. This shouldn't happen on the rear since the scope mount holes are generally threaded all the way through the action into the bolt raceway, but in the front the barrel tenon is there in the way below the hole/s.
