yeah I agree...I mean it doesn't seem like much but it still was noticeably loose so it just made me wonder if the headsets tend to run a little off or whether you don't actually use a cone wrench like that on the locking nut, or if it is just normal to kind of chew up the finish on the nut. maybe my wrenching technique is bad...
