rings to dovetail

[Gary K]

Mounted some rings to my CZ 455 last night, which has an 11 mm dove tail.
Was just wondering how tight the screws holding the rings to the dovetail should be?

im aware the actual rings holding the scope are around 15-20 inch pounds of torque. but what about the rings to that teeny tint dovetail?
I feel i mat be to tight.
although i only used a small Allen key so it couldn't be THAT tight.


any insight?

Probably in the same range as the other screws, 20-25 inch pounds or so. I usually just get them as tight as I can with the Allen key and I haven't had one loosen up yet.
