Took my A5 off to do a few things to the rifle. Two action screws. What should I torque them to? I have the aluminum pillars installed from the factory.
Thanks in advance.

65 INCH Pounds. Not foot pounds.
65 in/lbs is the maximum. Set your torque where your rifle shoots best. My rifles shoot best between 40-50 in/lbs.

Interestting.. so when doing load developing how can you tell its not the load giving you bad groups but the torque.. and what torque you use while doing load developing?Try different torque (ex: 40, 50, 60, 65 in/lbs), shoot your rifle on paper target (or whatever) with your best loads; if holes far apart, bad torque, if holes very close together or better, good torque Some rifles even like different torque between front and back, depends on the rifle.

I always go what with 65inch on all my bedded stock and require torque from parts manufacturer..i think theres to many variables while doing load test and playing with torque on action its an add on.. but it does make sense... i wonder how much of a diff on POI between 40-65 inch?I always went with the builder/manufacturer specs and never had an issue but I would say that if someone is having a hard time in their load development (groups unusually large), they may want to check the stock's torque, as well as scope base and rings. I have a few older rifles (M-N) and when/if the stock getting loose, groups open drastically.
