Adhesive on rings ?

[Wyatt Smith]

Gentlemen:
Sorry for not responding sooner, Deer season started the first. Thank you for all the input. I am going to try some of the suggestions you have offered. I mark my scope with a sharpened pencil. I to dislike vertical rings but it was all I had on hand at the time, an old set of Warnes. I also think that I have been lax in my degreasing of the components.
Thamk you
Paul

I always mark mine with a pencil as well. An easy way to make sure it’s where it belongs.
