I got a pair of these last week and mounted a Nightforce SHV 3-10x42 on a Tikka T3x . I am extremely pleased with the overall quality and engineering that went into these rings. I have the T084 and was wondering if anyone knows the specs for the bases and rings. Thanks in advance

They're listed on their website in FAQs. They seem kind of high.

What do they recommend? I'd likely go 15-17 on the tube and 35-40 on the base. The little washers aren't pretty but pretty functional.

I use the very scientific method of very snug with the longer lever of the supplied wrench on the clamp screws and very snug with the short lever of the wrench on the ring screws - going back across them several times in a pattern.
I degrease and apply fingernail polish to all screws.
