it only goes on the bit inside the front of the action, so no-one is going to see it... I normaly put a fews drops at the front and rear of the barrel housing section of the action, and then a drop on the threads of breech section before installing the nut. Fit the muzzle weight, ensuring you have it screwed on the right number of threads for a medium (not too tight or too loose as either destroy accuracy) underver lockup. You may need to rotate the barrel slightly to index, as the perfect muzzle weight screw-in distance might end up not being vertically in line with the underlever. Then nip everything up and let the loctite go off.
