OP is having trouble with MTX, not MDS weights.So why does this seem to be a problem with only the MDS weights?
Is the super aggressive profile of the weights somehow making the weight and pin want to move independently?
Has anyone spoken to Steve about this issue? Does he have ideas?

I have found similar issues with mine.
What I have been doing is removing the set screw, bolt and weight, cleaning everything up very well.
getting all the old red loctite off the set screw, then spray the Loctite primer in the weight, I am not to sure if the material that the weights are made of might not take to loctite as well as standard cold rolled or hot rolled type material. So the primer ensures it bonds like it should.
One other thing is no matter how well you think you have the set screw centered in the divot in the pin, it is probably off a bit. I always turn the bolt back and forth a bit when I think it is set and sure enough I will get a little movement, re tighten the set screw until the "wiggle" is out of it. That way you know your set in the center of the bolt divot.
10/4 blablabla yep
Then check them a lot and good luck.

So i had a very interesting problem with mine.. I had one set screw that kept coming loose. So i took out the bolts and discovered that the cam arm that was coming loose had a different hole in the bolt where the set screw seats.. it a little round point in the middle of the hole, like a little ball. The other bolts and the 4 new ones I just bought only have a hole for the set screw to seat in.. I dont know where the one bolt came from, but no matter what i did, it would come loose every ride. I also make sure the weight swing free.
