[QUOTE="isaaccarlson, post: 2317301, member: 33850"] Nightfirce scopes are heavy. I would have expected it to happen sooner if that was the case. That action is very shiny, so there is practically zero friction between the bases and the action. I would mask off the area where the bases sit and sand it with coarse paper to roughen it up, then cold blue and put new screws in. That would go a long way in adding friction. [/QUOTE]
