So, I've been trying to get my front action screw tightened down to 95 inch pounds. I assumed it was right already as it was tightened by a gunsmith after my trigger work but it came off easily with a screw driver. We tried a torque wrench but can't get it down that tight without the screw stripping. Went to a well established gunsmith and they acted like I was crazy claiming they tighten all their rifles to 35 lbs or hand tight (not the first time I've thought these people were idiots).
So, how necessary is it to get 95 lbs and do those gunsmithing torque drivers work? Has anyone here tightened to 95 inch pounds and how was it done and how hard was it? I want to know before investing 60 dollars.... Thanks.
