Gunsmithing Recommended M2008 barrel torque spec?

Re: Recommended M2008 barrel torque spec?

Torque specs on the barrel are going to be what ever your smith used when setting headspace on your barrel when finish-chambering it. Usualy 100 ft-lbs.

I have a .308 barrel chambered and checked under 100 ft-lbs that I run a 50 ft-lbs. without a problem though.
