Hi, all. I have a Weatherby Vanguard series 1 (I think) in a .308. The action screws come loose on a regular basis. The torque for a series 1 is 35 in-lbs. Series 2 is 55 in-lbs. Two questions: #1). Want to make sure it is a series 1. It has an all black stock with a three position safety. Been told black stock is series 1. Also been told a three position safety is a series two. Please help clarify. Makes a difference on the torque. Need to know this first before I use lock tite. #2). I have been torquing to 35 in-lbs, taking 2 shots and rechecking torque. Every time I check, I get some movement. Would think after a few times, it would settle. Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks.)
