Gunsmithing Tikka CTR muzzle device torque

[ThrowLead]

So I have searched DuckDuckGo.com, the Hide search, along with other forums.
I can’t find a sold torque value for a muzzle device on a Tikka.

It is a Tikka CTR in 6.5 creed to be more specific, and I want to use the Dead air Nomad with the keymo mount.
It is a flash hider, so I don’t really need to time it but I may want to have the alignment notch on top so I may use shims.
Regardless, I would like to use a proper torque spec if possible. Not a huge fan of “hand tight and then another 1/8” turn” method, although I am sure it works!

Like rifle barrel torque, there’s a truly massive range between “tight enough to not fall off” and “damaging something”. Seriously, alignment at 10-15 degrees rotation past hand-tight is fine.

Give it 50 foot-pounds if you really want a spec.

The manufacturer of the firearm is not that important for this.

Dead Air's manual states 25-35 Ft-lb
AAC states 20-30 Ft-lb
Rugged states 20-25

Get the alignment right and if you are somewhere in this range it's gonna be fine. I've got several devices a bit under this torque as well without any issues. Rockset or loctite can be used if you wish.

Tighten until you hear the crack, then back off a 1/4 turn. Works every time.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure I was within a safe range.
