If I remember correctly, if your Remington 700 has an aluminum floorplate/"bottom metal"-meaning it is factory original, not an aftermarket steel unit, the correct torque is 45 lbs (inch lbs? ft lbs? can't remember the units sorry). If you have an aftermarket steel bottom metal unit for a Remington 700, the torque can be increased to something like 60 lbs.
You don't want to use 60 lbs on the aluminum bottom metal, as it will gall the aluminum.
Also, as you set the torque, I believe you should have the rifle vertical at the "loose screw position", so as you tighten the screws (bolts), the action's recoil lug is set against the stock area for firm recoil control.
That's how I remember it, but my memory is like a steel trap. It's old and rusty.
