Mesa Altitude and AG Composites Torque

[morgaj1]

I have a Mesa Altitude stock for a Tikka and an AG composites for a Rem 700, both pillar bedded. What would you torque the stock bolts to?

Torqued my AG to 40 inch pounds on RM 700 in 300 WM. It has aluminum blocks but is not bedded. YMMV

I torque my AG stock to 65 in. lbs. with my bighorn origin.

Its un-bedded, just has the factory installed aluminum pillars. Shoots great.

I called Mesa when I put their altitude stock on a Tikka and asked this question. They recommended torquing to whatever the bottom metal manufacturer recommended.

Mostly manufacturers are going to say 65 in/lbs. Your screw toward the barrel is generally going to be considered the most important. If you where to torque one more than the other, set that one more. Example: 60 at the barrel 50 at the tang. Whatever you do just be consistent if you ever take it apart again.

I did fifty front and back on my Tikka with a Proof prefit in Sendero contour. Shoots great.
