Ok thanksI was drooling over the fix it sticks, but since I already had this Tekton I tried it, and I'm good too go!
I also have a set thrown in my range bag, quick, easy and well put together.Large at home tools are nice until you have to bring them out of the house. The fix it sticks are a nice compact set and easy to use at home or at the range or match. I have a set in my match pack.
I've been considering buying a second set for the bench because I have a fear that I will forget to put them back in my bag after using them and need them at a match or somethingI also have a set thrown in my range bag, quick, easy and well put together.
I suspect if I check my kids rooms and added it all up there is probably 5-6 set in the house between range bags gun room and small purpose built setsI've been considering buying a second set for the bench because I have a fear that I will forget to put them back in my bag after using them and need them at a match or something
I had one once and it just was too limiting, the fixit set does more ( than just torque) and is actually easier ( for me) to use. I ended up giving it to a buddy at work.Get a Wiha TorqueVarioS and be done with it:

Ok I here ya !!!I don't think people understand how compact a proper torque wrench is in the torque range we're discussing.
This is a Tohnichi RTD series torque driver. Superior to fixit sticks and chinesium garbage like the Wheeler wrench. If this doesn't fit in your range bag, then you have too much useless shit in your range bag.

What's the max setting on that unit? (my google fu is weak right now)I don't think people understand how compact a proper torque wrench is in the torque range we're discussing.

I still like my fixit sticks but that looks far superior to the fat wrench I have in my tool box
Ok will look at thanksMost appropriate tohnichi drivers for gun work are probably the 6-22 lb-in or 10-40 lb-in LTD or RTD series for the low end and the 20-90 lb-in LTD series for the high end. Those two will cover pretty much the entire range of scope mount and action screw torque.
The RTD is a slip through clutch style and the most fool proof, while the LTD can be tightened past the set torque if you don't feel the set point being reached, but unfortunately the highest capacity slip through RTD series only goes up to 40 lb-in.
A mountz fga80 driver will cover 8-80 lb-in (at the expense of a little less accuracy & repeatability than the tohnichi drivers) so a single driver will work for pretty much every fastener torque on a gun, but it's much more expensive and needs a battery. However, the single mountz fga80 is about the same price as 2 tohnichi drivers.
I’m a legend in my own mindIt’s a darn good meme!
