Hi TW,

I was at Craig's yesterday and the subject actually came up and the answer from the horses mouth is 1.5 Nm - 2 Nm max.

Regards

Not sure what this equates to, but I usually tighten the rings to 15 inch lbs and the clamp (to picatinny) to 35 inch lbs

info was spot on for me my torque driver is in NM. Engers at work did me a laminated spread sheet to convert to NM to inlbf from 0.1 > 6 NM

The scope cross bolt took the full 6 NM to tighten onto rail
