Rifle Scopes Torque for caps screws on NF Ultralight Rings.

[Vin]

Just wondering if anyone knows the recommended torque for these particular scope rings due to the fact that they are aluminum vs steel.Thx for your input.

Always torqued mine, had 3 sets of NF Ultralites, at 15-20 <span style="font-weight: bold">in/lbs</span> and never had a problem. Same as any ring caps.

I did 30 in-lb on the Ultralight rings on my 338LM without any issue.
