Torque pattern for frame screws on cricket
If you do not have a torque handle or similar, do you just have to go by feeling or are there any tips/tricks when it comes to tighten down the Four screws that holds the AT and barrel on a cricket?

This is about all the useful info I found fromthat, but I think is is enough, thanks
From Ernest,
“With action in the stock and AT at 180 bar, loosen all 4 hex bolts till loose, turn down all bolt to it bottoms out on it’s shoulders. Pull barrel off the action about 2″ and slowly insert back, a properly aligned barrel will have an even clearance entering the action with an even O-ring compression. If miss aligned the barrel will hit the lip of the action then you force the barrel in, now the barrel has more metal contact on one side and is more subject to POI change.”
