    Never had any issues with mine, both my bergaras 308 and 223 shoot like lasers, both have scopes mounted on the picatinny rail that is factory mounted.
    I guess if it wasn't shooting straight you could question the rail ?
    I even removed the rail on my 308 and when I put it back on I don't remember there being a great deal of play if any and it shot straight before and after.

    I tried epoxying a rail on my old browning years ago in an effort to use my oeg aimpoint. yeah fail. Araldite lasted less than 5 shots truying to sight it in.
    I then tried some of that CRC epoxy putty. One of the first out. Heaps better. Sighted it in, about a packet and a half of ammo on opening morning and it fell off again lol.
    A lot of metal clanging and banging on an A5 so maybe your rifle not so bad. good luck but I would have though about sweating it on minimum.

    I think you will find that "epoxied the rail on" means it was epoxied AND screwed on...dumbasses

    Well considering I tried it back in the day I would assume that someone else may try. No meat on the top of the A5 to D/T so not much option in that case.
    As a fitter I also struggle with the need for epoxy under scope rails. If they don't hold they aren't big enough or there is something else going on.
