Yeah, It can.  I still think a rare earth magnet has a lot of potential.  They can be had in  very powerful compact sizes.

How much recoil are we dealing with?
22 LR or 50-110 or something in between?
Mags could work, what happens when the rifle is in it's case transported in your truck?
Bad idea, worthy of levity, Red.
At least glue will hold or break, not potentially move just a bit and ruin your alignment.

Some of those little rare earth  magnets will take 50# of force to break them free.  They could be used in conjunction with Accuraglass or JB Weld to give the glue supplemental support.

For a temporary mount for testing, I milled a one piece aluminum base for a Unertl scope. I used double sided carpenter's tape between the barrel & base. As a security feature I used a reversed vinyl tape wrap around barrel & base. I managed to shoot many shots this way.

Don't know if Black Max is the same as Black RTV but I would think about it.  M.L. McPherson mentioned it in his book.  Me personally, I would prefer some Flex in the Joint rather than a ridged one.  So a Aluminum Base with RTV has my vote.  Good luck!

Rein in the puerile chatter, and you won't have to suffer it.

Some of us, not in perpetual grouchiness, like to have some fun.
Don't like it, don't read it.
You don't control it. What a poop!

Actually, I own a pair of magnets that are about an inch square and are powerful enough that several people have given themselves blood blisters while trying to separate them. They were used as activators for a safety circuit to shut off a ski lift in the event of a derailed cable. Mighty powerful, to withstand the rigors of lousy weather, motion and idiot maintenance. 
I still don't think that they are a good solution to a scope mounting problem. I think I prefer the adhesive if I didn't want to drill for some reason.
And, I like to have fun with my friends, so kidding is liable to return from moment to moment. Carry on.

When it's inserted, pointlessly, into an otherwise interesting & useful discussion, especially one in which I have a personal interest, you give me no choice.

When your comic genius just can't be suppressed, why not confine it to the forum topic set aside for that specific purpose: "Off Topic Chatter."  That one I decided some months ago to shun entirely, expressly to avoid your unrelenting drivel, which monopolizes its content.

Call me a poop if you wish (though I haven't resorted to name-calling)--just don't call me an air-head.

But I do know the meaning of "sycophant."  Look it up before you expose your IQ again.

I know what "puerile" means too.
It's really a shame you need to bother people for having a bit of fun.
you still don't control the forum, but you are getting very boring.
glad you have no problem with air-headed and grouchy, poop Grin

Red, 
It's too bad your intense depression has caused you to make your recent series of snarky comments, especially unwarranted outside of off topic.
This is counter-productive and bad for the forum.
Someone has to be the bigger man here, as it's obviously not you, I'll do it. Take your last cheap shot, everyone knows a little poop like you can't resist.
out,
Aaron
