1971silversurfer Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 A Stock bolt had came loose on my Howa after a heavy session, does anyone know the correct torque setting for this gun? i've set it to 50 inch llb for now using a Wheeler FAT. FYI I have original floorplate and a Bell and Carlson Medalist stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeroz Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 In the book "The Ultimate Rifle Accuracy" by Glenn Newick he says 40 inch lbs front screw and 25 inch lbs rear screw. That's 4.52 Nm and 2.825 Nm in metric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeroz Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 It's a pleasure. I have a switch barrel custom and have to whip my stock off regularly. The torque settings are in permanent marker pen on my barrel vice. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20series Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 Not sure about fullbore but on Anschutz small-bore rifles the recommended Torque was 4Nm for Wooden stock and 6Nm for Ally stocks. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
