Was at the range this weekend with Keaner and doing among other things sighting in my Win. M70 in 30-06. Hadn't shot it in quite a while and after the first shot I notice the vertical cross hair looks about 5 degrees off of being centered with the bore. Apparently the scope rings had loosened enough to let the scope move under recoil. I realigned the scope and tightened the rings up and it ended up printing a nice MOA group at 100 yards 2" above dead center.
One of the other guys on the range asked me if I had Loc-Tited the rings which I hadn't. I have never used Loc-Tite and don't really know which kind to buy and how to apply it. Do you put it down the screw holed and then insert the screws and tighten? Do you put it on the screw threads before inserting in the rings and tightening.
I know it may seem like a silly question, but I am always a little leary of using any chemical or compound I have never used before.
Please school me on Loc-Tite!!!
