[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 1448779, member: 9281"] So part of the wierdness is that the guys at Burris all swear that they’re torquing up their personal XTRII’s using Signature rings to a full 25 in./lbs. without tube damage. I think the major difference is their flawed torque down method vs. the way I do it. Essentially they are setting the wrench to 25 in./lbs and crisscrossing hitting each corner screw one time and then finishing by hitting the center screws one time. In my original post I kind of explained why this is highly inaccurate, produces uneven torque screw to screw and actually produces a lower overall clamp load than my method. All of this is because the inserts are very compressible! [/QUOTE]
