Real men do everything in foot pounds
. Seriously, use inch pounds.

1.25 lbs/ft
, if you can find one calibrated that low . . .
Wonder of Al's net - always go to the manufacturers site first for tech info.
If you have a good dial wrench, use it. If not, check out the Borka in "Group Buy" forum.

I had to drill a base screw out once that had blue loc tite on it...
I kept that stuff far away from guns since then, tighten everything to spec and surpeese surpreese, no loose base.

I didn't use much on the screws. I did on the base, just used a q-tip to get the excess off. My rifle will be in the rain so I didn't want moisture under there.

15 inch pounds and no more. I would NOT recommend using Loctite. There may come a time when you will have to take that base off. I use a Snap-On torqueometer torque wrench 0-100 inch pounds to mount optics. I never had a problem.
