Guys,
I have a 1992 Weatherby Fibermark in a 300 Wby Mag. I began wondering what torque value this stock should be set at when I later purchased an Weatherby Accumark and the enclosed domcumentation's recommended value was 65 in/lbs.
I called Weatherby customer support as well as sending an email to McMillan. No response from McMillan after 2 weeks, but I did get through to a Weatherby rep. He said it shouldn't be nowhere near 65 in/lbs., but couldn't give me a torques value. (What feels snug.) That answer sucked, but I knew there was no use continuing the conversation.
Has anyone experimented with the torque value on one of the early fiberglass stocks? The Fibermark has a #2 contour and I start with MOA, but begins stringing after the first 3 shots heat the barrel up. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif I do have a Seekonk variable torque wrench. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
