About a year ago I put the stock scope rail on my 10/22 and mounted a scope. Shortly after I began to notice the scope rocking ever so slightly back and forth, I removed the scope and found that it was the rail that was loose. I removed the rail and reinstalled it with blue, medium strength Loctite. It remained tight for a longer period of time, but it has finally begun to loosen again. Both times I tightened them to a point that I felt comfortable that they shouldn't back out. I've got a 12 ounce scope on it and I'm not throwing the rifle around, so I'm quite surprised that I'm having issues with it coming loose. Any suggestions?
