[QUOTE="jcpython357, post: 16358, member: 1187"] BBB, The epoxy shouldn't be neccesary, but if you feel you'll never take the thing apart, have at it, When I turn in my rings in the dovetail, I'll apply a little grease, so as to minimize wear and make the ring turn a little easier, new rings and bases should take a bit of effort sometimes to turn in, look at the section of the ring that goes in the base, If it's galled quite a bit, it may be wore out so to speak, when you get your new base, you shouldn't be able to turn in the ring with just your hand, (I use a 1" steel dowel), if you can, the ring is shot, too.
