Hi guys. Have anyone talked to Athlon about torque specs for this scope? I cant find any info.

I would like the torque specs for the mount rings ( i am using a one piece Spuhr ), and if possible also the specs for the 3 small zero stop screws under the turret cap.

Best regards, Peter
 
When I had my Cronus BTR, it was mounted in ARC M10 rings. The single top screws I torqued to around 32-35 in/lbs with zero ill effect. If I would’ve used more traditional 4 screw rings, 18-20 in/lbs torque. For the zero stop screws, just finger tight with the long side of an Allen key.

Suggested maximum torque for those rings is 50 inch pounds I think.
I’m at 45-46.
