Rifle Scopes Spuhr Mount Torque Specs

[Dark Horse]

Anyone know the torque specs for the Spuhr mount rings and base screws? Mount came with zero paperwork...no dimensional drawing, specs or instructions.

Beautiful and well-thought mount but should have come with something other than foam popcorn and a receipt.

Rifle is a TRG-42 if that matters.

Re: Spuhr Mount Torque Specs

per Spuhr "When it comes to Torque the teoretical value for the screws used are 20 inchpounds for the rings and 50 inchpounds for the sidescrews. That is the torque I used, seemed to work fine. I emailed him when I got mine with same question. Here is link to thread with the specs in it http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2335248&page=1

I too just received a Spuhr for my new TRG-22. It is an awesome mount, but some instructions/paperwork would be a nice addition. Now if my S&B PMII 5-25x would arrive, my setup will be complete...

Re: Spuhr Mount Torque Specs

I recieved my sp-3601 to mount on my P-308, no instructions or anything, went to mount and the mounting screws wouldn't clear the slots in my rail*&%@% Tried on (3) different rifles.Seen enough and sent back UPS today NICE mount but for the money I would expect better that that. My N/F mounts fit like a glove. Win some loose some.

Bringing this thread back from the dead.

Is the above number still the value that people are going with??


Thanks

Cant remember but if you go to the website there is a pdf of the instruction manual you can download.

 

[delixe]

Those are the values I use, 20 in/lbs on the rings & 50 on the rail

I sell their products but there is always a manual inside as far as I've seen.
