I think if you ask Leopold they will say no. Probably why guy who mounted didn't. Decrease tq value. Not saying people don't. Green might be better.
rings are easy to check. Though I don't tq them then like I should. I also realize most people don't tq, I have not, and are ok.
but loctite does increase tq so be careful.
what rings? I did my last with quick detach. I'll probably do them all that way going forward. Last time went with low profile too. Not huge difference.
