[QUOTE="Strip Poker 388, post: 598414, member: 28274"] I just received a NightForce scope base/rail 1913picatinny for my New Rem 700.I'm trying to sight it in tomorrow.It didn't come with destructions:rolleyes: and Nightforce is closed ,the place were I bought it didn't know and guessed it to be 25-30inchpds,Everybody else is at the shotshow.I searched and googled it and cant find anything concrete.I looking for more than a guess ,Yea most people tell me just to hand tighten it w/ blue loc.Ive got the TQ wrench ,Why not do it right the first time. I Figured someone here in this section prob knows the spec and why there is a spec. The NF rings I have came with paper work/specs,25inch. They are larger (?8-40) screws than the 6-48 base screws,So I guessing that 25-30 would stretch the shet out of them or twist them off. I saw one post that said 15inch for the rail/base screws,that the sort 2 go in the front ,as to not protrude into the bolt lug area. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!!!
