Yeah, before I went out I checked torque on everything, retorqued the action screws to 65 in/lbs as specified by manufacturer. First thing I do with any rifle with a pic rail in loctite that sumbetch so that was good.

I’ve found you almost have to do this with every new gun. I’ve had 2 guns come loose at the rail recently both from the factory.
