Going to use a JP upper as a super SPR type rifle with a PH 3-15 mil-Dot. Mount is a Larue SPR/MR Lt-104. This is my first time mounting this kind of scope on this kind of mount. PH says to use 15in/lb of torque, Larue when I talked to them, suggested 45in/Lb of torque. Not wanting to give into my inner Gorilla or spend $200 bucks on a torque wrench, I got a 25in/lb fixed wrench. I mounted the scope, used levels to get everything square. Tightened the bottom screws first, just like Larue suggested and tightened the top at 25in/lbs. Well, the scope is loose.
Anyone have exprerience with the with scope and mount combo? Should I use the short end of the allen wrenches in the bolt and almost get after it tightening the bolts? What's a common reference for 45in/lbs?
Thanks!
