Since no one has answered and I guess youe in the middle of putting it together... I think anything from 40-80 would be sufficient.

I torque mine to 50. Has not been a problem for 5 barrel changes now.

+1 for 50. I opted for 55 and it's running flawless regardless of which barrel I run, 6.5, 308 or 6
