Must add, the ring mount around the scope tube was still secure,
it was the mount itself to the the rifle mount that shook loose :-)

ah! thanks for the info I understand now, I use blue threadlock on my base and rail screws, seems to do the job and can be undone easily.

I use 2700 because I started off with it and did what I needed so I simply replaced it with like for like when the time came. It is only used for specific applications.

Ah Lockwire, I have a coil of wire and my aircraft locking pliers from the days of running race 'bikes and still look for opportunities to use it

Good lockwiring is an artform.

It is indeed. It needs some planning to get it right especially when lock wiring rotors where you are working with a long length of lock wire and you need to tension the wire on the correct planes of the bolt heads. That reminds me, drilling the bolt heads is a bi of an art form as well, especially HT sets.

A good reversible thread lock for anti rattle is nail varnish (your choice of colour!) I use clear on the brake lever adjuster screws on my motorbike, the vibes from a big twin used to unscrew them leading to interesting moments. Dab of nail varnish no more movement, just use nail varnish remover if you want to adjust them again!

I learnt my wirelocking skills on Harriers! Makes me feel old!

Nah, if it was Harts then you'd be old.

I bought some 222 for my SGC 9mm. The muzzle brake would work loose while firing. Put some of the 222 on and it hasn't budged.
I can't unscrew it by hand, but a screwdriver or rod through the slots of the brake makes it easy to undo.
