Scope ring torx size?

T15. Do yourself a favor and use a torgue wrench and stay a little closer to 20 inch pounds. I have been using a German made Felo torque wrench for years and they seem to be quite good. A lot of folks will disagree but I prefer a very small amount of purple loc tite on the threads.
 
Get a whole hand full as my T-15 bits like to visit my 10mm sockets at an undisclosed location and neither ever come back.
Perhaps they are partying with a very long list of my popular sized wrenches and bits. They do seem to have legs and never find their way back home. For the life of me though I cannot lose an 11/16 wrench. I must have every one I ever bought. Because I hardly ever need that size of course.
 
Another vote for Wiha. I needed a Torx bit for scope rings a couple of years ago. I went to Lowes and bought the only one in the store, a Kobalt brand. I twisted the tip off the first time it was used. I did some research and bought the set pictured. I liked them so much, I bought another for work.

I didn’t know about the T-handle type. I gotta get a set of those. I do like quality tools.
