[QUOTE="Josh Smith, post: 1904898, member: 24466"] Hi All, I'm hoping this might help some folks. [b]I apologize in advance for the screw heads; they were taken apart literally hundreds of times.[/b] I've since replaced them and found a proper bit for my torque wrench that will not cause damage to the new ones, even over the long-term!

I'm not going to risk selling it though. Liability. Dangit. This rifle is capable of this (or rather, I'm capable of doing this, with my 20/55 sight; I'm sure the rifle's much better): [img]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i1147.photobucket.com_albums_o560_Smith_Sights_Current_20Rifleb2582211d3b66e64961046772f69c785.jpg[/img] I had to work for that group, but as long as I have a target I can see, I can do about that. I take coyotes at 200 yards. That's about as far as I can see, uncorrected. I know what these rifles can do and I love to see folks wring them out. Heck, a Finnish M39 had to have at least a 1.3MOA capability to be accepted into service! Josh [/QUOTE]
