It seems that everybody has different "rules" on how to best use the thread locker.
Some think that the Loctite Blue is sufficient for every rifle power, others says use the Red for the big boomers.
Some folks think is plenty to use them only on the base-receiver mounting screws not needed on the scope rings screws.
Finally, the "rules" for how to apply the product ...some says is better to put a drop only on the receiver/rings thread, others claim that you should only apply a drop on the tip of the screw itself before threading not on the receiver and/or rings threads.
I even saw a gunsmith applying a drop only when the screw is almost already all the way in, basically at the last couple of turns of the screw and another drop on top once the screw is completely tightened in order to create also a bond on the screw head-mounting socket area.
Your take???
