Re: Action screws tightening force for a regular mauser m98?
Quote: At school they taught us to tighten the front action screw with your fist as tight as you can get. Tighten the rear as tight as you can get it with two fingers.
On mine i follow similar to above--however i measure it ..I tighten the front to 62 in/lbs (have a special wrench to measure it) the rear turn it in but not tight..just to that point if that makes sense
