Hi all , finally got one , wheeler fat wrench, (digital) what a top piece of equipment, when I checked the rings and mounts who under torqued they were , going to chech the action screws ,but mana factor information is coming up short , any suggestions
That pdf is great for general engineering recommendations. Some firearm torque values are specific and vary from the norm. Some action screws have a range of suitable torque values that can be used to tune the individual rifle. Pillar bedding for example will alter the required torque. Maybe some more information on what you are working on will get some specific help.
Timber stock with out pillars i do at around 35 inch pounds on a centerfire. On a rim fire i tune the torque between 15 and 25 inch pounds. 25 is even getting a bit too much. My t-bolt likes 22"lb front and 17 at the back. The old Sportco is more like 13 & 17. My centerfires are pillar and full action bedded and i crank them to 55"lb.
Hi thanks of the information ,struck a problem ,the HEX bits that came with the kit ,wont fit the hex heads in the stock ,scope rings spot on ,will have hunt down 3/32 hex bit from some where ,ok such is life ....... : )
Yes there not bad at all , done all my gats and was dumbfounded by how far out every thing was ,so down to the range for a test , word of warning , once your mates know u have one look out
