[QUOTE="Tangent, post: 1755230, member: 110477"] You should definitely round-up a torque wrench to make sure action screws, base screws, and ring screws are properly torqued. That said, whenever I remove a barreled action action from a stock, it will take 5 -15 rounds (ish) to settle-in. Honestly, 20 rounds is not nearly enough to know how you/the gun/the scope/ etc. shoot. If it were me (at a minimum), I'd check torque on every screw, then shoot 10 or so until it settles in. Then shoot two or three 5 round groups at 100 to get the scope zero'd and get your baseline. Assuming no problems, then start shooting to distance to dope out the gun. [/QUOTE]
