Scope ring/base torque spec - Holy Cow!

Nope. Just a set of little 1" short action rings - for a .22 Hornet no less.

I just got the Burris 1" style scope rings for my CZ-527 (22 🐝). They are dovetail base style. I cringed when I saw the torque specs on these things. It calls for 60 in/lbs for the bases and 30-35 in/lbs for the ring screws! Why so high? I'm gonna need a cheater bar for my FAT wrench!

I used a lot of Burris rings this is the guide I use ...

Your FAT wrench also have a torque chart recommendation for lubricated and dry fastener torque values.

How you have it set is GTG, have fun with it.
