Thread: Torqueing screws for cheapskates

I don’t get why many shooters seek out and invest in gear machined to really fine tolerances and then ignore manufactures torque recommendations.
Decided to up my game when I bought a couple really nice rifles and scopes, but I do come from an industry though where mechanically, she’ll be right doesn’t cut it.
I guess it depends on individual investment and their expectations as much as anything.
At the range I’ve witnessed satisfaction at some astonishingly poor shooting, so understand the concept of correctly torquing fasteners is completely lost on more than a few.
