I want to work the trigger on my M20 22 rf I acquired last March. What do I torque the stock bolts to?

Forbes spec is 80" and 30"lbs. I'd think they got that # from Melvin.

I asked Melvin a few years ago. He didn't give a specific torque value. I can't recall his exact wording, but his instruction was to torque them "tight".
