Can we get a review on the torque driver?Torque wrench and loctite arrived today.
Last week I cleaned the screws, shroud and scope base with gun scrubber then acetone and let them dry for days. They should be squeaky clean and dry.
I added some loctite under the base and on top of the shroud and on the screws. Torqued to 20 inch pounds. Handy little tool.
Then I’ll let it cure for a couple days before I bring it back to the range.

Well it’s made in China so we know the quality must be high...I mean it’s got some weight to it so seems decent. Reviews were decent too.Can we get a review on the torque driver?
Good to know you’ve had good luck with the wrench.I've had great use out of the FAT wrench. Would rather have something domestic, but this is definitely not a bad product by any stretch of the imagination.
Glad to see you got the gun fixed though! Maybe these ones will last more than a year? If I'm remembering the dates about right.
Ya it seems like a decent tool. I know some guys who use them for their PRS rifles.I have one and its been working fine for a few years.
i grew tired of bringing my snappy 1/4" drive torque wrench home so bought on of these.

The torque wrench?What's the over/under on this?
The torque wrench?
Did you mark the screws then? How will you confirm they've not moved?Good to know you’ve had good luck with the wrench.
Ya I sure hope they’ll last much longer this time around. What I plan to do different is remove the scope every 300ish rounds or so to check if the screws loosened up. I literally never checked them previously. Only checked the scope ring screws.
My wife probably has as much nail polish as I have ammo. She gave me what she thought would last the longest on the gun. Marked the screw and the the scope base to see if they move.Did you mark the screws then? How will you confirm they've not moved?
So what color did she pick out that best matches the outfit?My wife probably has as much nail polish as I have ammo. She gave me what she thought would last the longest on the gun. Marked the screw and the the scope base to see if they move.
I think so. It’s been holding zero for thousands of rounds. But we’ll see....now will the scope hold up?
