AI AE mkiii action screws torquing questions.

[slate84]

Two quick dumb questions.

1. What is the correct bit for said rifles action screws, have to pick one up since mine all have slop when I put a bit in them.

2. I have a borka that goes up to 73 in/lbs and an actual t-wrench that the meter starts out at 10 ft/lbs but I can turn it down to approx the 7.4 ft/lbs (89 in/lbs) required but I dont know down that far how accurate it is. What is my best bet of correctly torquing it?

Thanks ahead for the help.

AEs action screws are torqued to 89 in-lbs. Yes 89 inch-lbs. I used to have one, thats how i know. 53in-lbs is for the AICS chassis

And its 5mm. Still not sure if the 70inlbs on the borka will be enough.

10 newton meters actually, or 88.5 inch-lbs

I have a torque wrench that you can use that will do the 88 in-lbs. I just don't have the 5mm bit so one of us will need to get one.
