    Can anyone tell me what the torque spec is on the axiom scope rail.
    It looks like the factory rail.

    I run the Axiom and would start with 25 in lbs with a dab of Loctite on each. You don't want to overtighten it and sheer off the screws. You could always email Chase and ask him specifically. [email protected]

    Ya I already emailed Chase. IN the meat time I posted here to see if someone knew.

    Thank you for the info.

    He's a little slow to respond. Much better than he used to be though, so maybe you'll hear back in a timely manner.

    But the above advice is good. Both myself and my shooting partner who have five Axioms between us use this method.

    I used 25 in lbs no problems on two axioms. I use this for all bases on every rifle from Remington to tikka to Sako.
