I have 3 daughters...But I buy my own fingernail polish...The youngest thinks its a hoot that dad keeps it in his gun cleaning cabinet....Also, make sure that you clean the threads and screws with rubbing alcohol before putting nail polish on, if they are greasy it defeats the purpose...
This is also why I own a Ruger M-77...No hidden screws to worry about...

I just bought some new Warne QD bases and rings for my new Savage 10 ML and I was wondering if you guys use any cement to hold the screws in the bases? What do folks use? Chap Gleason

When I talked to the Brownell's guy he read the descriptions and I believe I chose "low strength" but I know you guys talked aobut blue, red and yellow and I am not sure of the strength of what I have. The bottle doen't say either. Anyone know about LocTite 222MS Low Strength being acceptable for scope screws on a ML?

RE: Scope Screws
The color is the color of the liquid not the bottle. Low strength should be OK. Any can be released by heat but the red is definately dangerous as it can become very hard to remove.

By the way Keith, your bullets are in the mail.
