[QUOTE="esshup, post: 215312, member: 11101"] Thanks for the replies so far. I have a beam type inch wrench, and a click pound/foot torque wrench, both from Sears. The pound/foot wrench is going on 30 years old, and I need to calibrate it every 6 months at work. So far it hasn't been more than 2# difference from what the handle says vs. the calibration device. My concern with the beam type is that I won't be as accurate with it, and the rifle needs to be held in a more stable platform than with a click type wrench. I have heard that the FAT Wrench is not as accurate (repeatability wise) as some of the other more expensive ones, i.e. Snap-on, etc. Keep 'em coming! [/QUOTE]
