I took my newly built Grendel out for it's second range session. She had grouped a couple of inches two weeks ago with Wolf MPT. I was packing some factory Amax today, hoping to shrink that a bit. I warmed up with some more MPT and things were looking good. Switching to the Hornady my groups got larger and larger until I wasn't even printing on my 12x12 inch target.
I suspected my scope had slipped, I pulled out the ole hex wrench and found two of the four ring screws had loosen. I don't own a torque driver so my initial install was just a guestimate of what 30 inch-pounds would feel like. I did use blue Locktite.
Thoughts from the Horde appreciated. Do I need a driver or was I just being a little cautious last time around? I have horrible visions of stripping the threads or crushing the tube.
