Tx3 TAC A1 – handguard coming loose
I picked up my Tx3 TAC A1 a few weeks ago.
took it to the range about 4-5 times – nice and tight groups
Today, all of the sudden, was unable to make a single group, being all-over.
After bringing the gun back home, I realized, that the handguard got pretty loose.
Took it off, and discovered that the 2 screws at the barrel knot are also getting loose.
Pretty surprising for a brand-new gun.
I have tighten things down, but was unable to find the recommended torque specs for either outer handguard screws or the inner barrel knot screws.
Does anyone know these specs?
Eugene.

I was looking through a Tikka owners manual that I recently found online and it didn’t specify a torque spec for those screws. It listed torque numbers for Action Screws, Sight Screws, Muzzle Brake, and Opti-Loc fasreners.
