To be honest, I'd recommend you take the bow to the shop and let the tech reseat the limbs in the pockets.Closely watchevery thing he does. Once you've seen it done, you have a good idea of how to take care of the problem yourself if you ever run across the same situation again.
Do you really think people these days can't turn a bolt themselves.

I'd believe ya if you said yes, pretty sad. lol
There may be more to seating the limb than just turning the bolts down all the way. There are buffers and shims in some of the limb pockets, especially those that allow the limb to float within the pocket as I suspect these are. I saw some HCA bows years ago that this happened to a lot. It took fully unloading the limb to get it back in place without damaging the finish.
