[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 560420, member: 2736"] Very good Info Chad. I do treat stainless screws differently than heat treated screws by using anti seize compounds on them. (An example is stainless muzzle breaks on stainless barrels). When you said 40 lbs I assume you meant 40 inch pounds. I have heard of people using over 100 ft/lbs on a barrel to reciever connection because the threads are rated higher, but there is a reasonable limit to all torque values,And this is where experance comes in. As far as limiting myself to 40in/lbs on the bedding screws I have some rifles that will shoot lose if torque is set at 40 but when increased to 50+ this probablem stops, so I leave my options open. Thanks J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
