    Thanks guys for all the advice here, I've picked up a lot of info..

    Everyone is talking about anti-sieze being intended to make it easy to undo a thread later, like for your suppressor.

    Going back to the torque wrench, would grease be good to make sure you get a smooth screw up and consistent torque / tension ? Or is just a smear of oil the story ?

    I suppose you can check your scope screws or bedding screws haven't come loose using the torque wrench without having to loosen them off ?
    Or do you get a bit of binding and the wrench clicks off even thoough its actually basically loose and just jammed with a bit of grit or dried hard scunge. So, do you need to loosen screws before you recheck the torque ?

    I've seen a "micrometer wrench" which shows the torque as you use it before it clicks off. I wonder if you can see the torque fall away as you start to strip the thread ?
