[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 560331, member: 2736"] Sorry to take so long to get back with you, I just saw where you added a post to it. I got my torque specs from a SAE chart on high grade screws because it is designed to prevent failure for the screw. It realy has nothing to do with the use. If a screw fails to meet the needed requirements then you should go to the next size larger. In the case of the action/guard screws 65 inch pounds is max for the action not the screw and in many cases less is better.(This is the reason I normally start at 35 to 40 inch pounds). All values are based on a minimum of 5 threads of engagement or more. In most cases, the scope bases and rings fall within the SAE guide lines and are included with the bases and rings.
