Purchased this rifle new in .30-06, 22" fluted barrel. The stock on this EMBER is very light and quite "honey-combed" for lack of better word. Called Beretta for recommendations on torque values for front & rear action screws. Their 1st answer, quote: "20 in-lbs". I called FOUL. Then she came back with quote: "Start at 30 in-lbs each, then increase 2 in-lbs until you have the grouping you like." Then she went on to say, quote " Do NOT go over 40 in-lbs or you may damage the stock. Honestly not impressed with TIKKA (Beretta) customer service or knowledge of their rifles. I have an older M658 RH with exceptional wood that is a tack driver. It likes 45 & 40 in-lbs of pressure on the woodstock. Can anyone share advice or experiences with recommended torque settings - front & rear for T3X LITE stocks? I would be skeptical of going too high in torque as this stock is very light and skeletonized inside. Appreciate the help. Thx

Try 40 in front and 25 in the back screw. Has not let me down yet!
