I try to carry tq or Allen in my hunting gear. Should check more often than I do. I am more inclined to use on base cause can't tighten with scope on. I think I went with medium too. Lower than standard. Had to take rear iron site off. If I am at camp just going to walk back and swap guns.
I have used green on screws that are problems like my super Blackhawk and 1885 4570. But again should check before season.
