Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Winchester Collectors another old timer pre 64 ?

When I get a gun in I take it apart and put a real scrub,clean and inspect for any surprise,My .264 is my first with a std, dog knot barrel,question being how do you folks set the forearm screw. Somewhere in the back of my mine someone had told me just engage the threads do not torque. What is you folks rule of thumb on that screw ? I could tell that I was the first to have the gun apart since it was built in 59' . I started to seal the barrel channel but did not. thanks
