Thanks for being such a good sport with this, and the torque wrench test fixture taking a crap. I'm sorry I had your wrenches for so long and wasn't able to test them. I'll post an update once we have suitable test equipment. Have fun with your new rifle! Jason

I realize it proved to be the most accurate, but I prefer the Wiha wrench. 24HCF in its entirety, is solely responsible for why my children do not have college funds, my mortgage isn't paid-off and why I will never retire early enough to enjoy the remainder of my life.

Big thanks to both of these dudes for being good sports by sending the wrenches, and being patient with my slow progress. Jason
