    Action screws should be checked before tou start shooting.
    Torquing to a spec not really needed. Front screw tight, but not so much to risk damaging screw.
    I will eventually reload for the caliber, I was (still am?) just unsure whether to go with dies for 7.5 Swissicon or 7.5 Swiss (K-31) or if it really matters for my Swiss rifles... And honestly I'm in the middle of a PCS move so won't have my reloading set up available for another few months anyway.

    I have tightened my action screws tho, and while I don't remember what my groups were the last time I took the rifle out I didn't get the vertical string I did when I started this thread.

    I am guessing 1/2 MOA.

    I am lucky to get that on a good day with my Bull Barrel 30-06 or my build up 7.5 Savage with a Lothar Walther barrel.
