Good evening! I know you all must be getting tired of my threads by now, but as I have stated I came here a COMPLETE noob!

Anyways, today I had a stud attached to this stock and I put the barrel, stock, and receiver together. I noticed that the bipod moves left or right ever so slightly (not even a mm, but after a while it gets more loose if I keep moving it). Should I put loctite somewhere on this bipod? Maybe where the bipod "rail" attaches to the stud?

A picture of the rifle is attached.

So do you have that one connected directly to the sling stud, or is there a rail that connects to the sling stud then the bipod connects to it? I have never seen the need for loctite on a bipod, but if you find it keeps working it's way loose the blue loctite might not be a bad idea on the screw that tightens it down. Did you try tightening it with a screwdriver so that you can get it tight?

I have never had an issue, I just screw that round knob as tightly as I can by finger and I am good to go. I never have sat there and tried wiggling the bipod back and forth, I suppose if I did, I may have the same issue you are having. They go onto studs on each gun, I don't have any rails on my guns.

I have two different legnth Harris Bipods that I alternate between three separate guns, depending on whether I am laying in a field (longer one) or sitting in an upstairs window (shorter one).

So, my bipods get moved around and even removed at times. I just tried moving my long one that is currently on my Savage 110 22-250 and it doesn't budge.
