Put my tikka T3 lite into an oryx chassis in pursuit of a bit more accuracy as was getting a flyer every 3rd shot as the barrel heated but to no avail has anyone used the chassis before I torqued it to the specs given but with no joy any tips or help appreciated tia
 
I've used the Oryx on a Remington 700 action... the torque recommendation was in the instructions, but if I remember correctly I did more torque on the front screw close to recomended torque and less on the rear screw, usually 40 to 65 inch lbs depending on the setup and the caliber being fired. Nothing should flex the action as it's tightened down and it should be smacked against the recoil lug. Mine was good to go, shooting excellent groups. These stocks are a good value IMO..
Take a torque wrench to the range and loosen or tighten to a specific torque one screw at a time and see if groups improve...but I tend to believe it's something else. Good luck...
