    .Hmmm so doing a bit of googling it looks like I need to start at 16 inch lbs, shoot a few groups and then loosen screws off and tighten up by 2inch lbs to find the best setting. Sounds like a bit of mucking around but cheap and easy with the 10/22, can't say I'm that keen to do it with the 308

    Inch lbs are so finicky, 16-20in/lb is regarded as being hand tight, using a finger & thumb. I wouldn't get too hooked up in it all.
