Is there a certain torque spec on the barrel nut?
Ok then. I'll give it a grunt and fart and all should be well. Thanks man!
I don't use a torque wrench on anything on my rifles.
Never have had a problem yet.
I just tighten em until I can't tighten anymore and pull a muscle... guess I'm tightening it too much.
You really can't overtighten it if you are just going by hand, Savage uses a 1000lbs gorilla to tighten their barrel nuts
If your action is trued, you have a ground lug and a trued barrel nut, 30-40 ft/lbs. Otherwise as tight as you can get it without distorting something is good. That is the reason behind the factory rifles being so tight, the mating surfaces are no bueno por Caca.
That makes pretty good sence I guess. Thanks!
