Quick Tip: Torque Specs for Action Screws

If you're looking for a little action today, Steve and Caleb are talking about something that's important for anybody who's changed a rifle stock or even just removed a stock when cleaning the rifle. The torque specs for tightening action screws really have nothing to do with the action. They're all about the STOCK you're installing the action into. For example, over-torquing the action screws on a Savage rifle can make the action lock up. So what's the right amount of torque for a Savage action? That depends on the stock you're putting it into! Overtightening the action screws on another rifle like a Remington 700 or Howa 1500 can damage the stock, which will mess up your rifle's accuracy. An old-fashioned all-wood stock may take only 30 inch-lbs. Modern synthetic stocks with aluminum bedding blocks often take 60 to 65 inch-lbs. of torque. A synthetic stock without an aluminum bedding block may come in the middle of that range. Where do you find the correct torque spec? Check with the manufacturer of the stock. For a factory stock, check with the manufacturer of the rifle. When in doubt, go easy on the torque. Over-torquing is much worse than under-torquing. And take it easy on rimfire rifles. You don't need to crank on those action screws to keep a .22's stock and action firmly connected.
