[QUOTE="lerch, post: 120833, member: 3115"] I havent seen one that you can twist by hand but I have seen some loose ones. I typically dont worry about them because the only way the ring could twist once the scope is put in would be to have the scope itself bend. Just make sure the ring doesnt move left and right once it is aligned with the bore and I would think you probably wont have prob's. I like to spray out all of the screw holes with gun cleaner or brake cleaner to make sure and oil or cosmoline is not in the threads. This would prevent the metal from seizing on itself properly and the screws could come loose. steve [/QUOTE]
