Not trying to break the bank. I am looking for a inch pound wrench for scopes and such. I saw the Wheeler FAT wrench and it just seemed like crap.
Whatcha got?

I have the wheeler fat wrench and it works pretty decent. -
Same thing probably a million gun owners have, Wheeler Fat Wrench. Dont be so quick to discount a tried and true tool that pretty much everyone owns.Comment

I have a wheeler, and a while back I bought a more expensive torque wrench that was certified to be calibrated. The Wheeler was very, very close for all the settings that I checked.Comment

I can tell you old snap-on torque wrenches are the best. Anything new from them that's a click style is garbage.
I did a lot of research a couple of years ago when I thought I was going to have to replace my 15-100ft lb wrench.
Precision Instruments used to make wrenches for snap-on. That's what I'd be buying if you need it to be precise.She is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.

Wilson Protector .45, Springer 9mm Loaded, Franchi Instinct SL .12ga. and some other cool stuff for the kiddos...Comment

Wheeler FAT in-lb torque wrench works fine and is a great value. I have no complaint about an analog model that cost me $35 on sale.
SOTAR also uses one in his videos.
Some people have replied with pics for FT-lb automotive torque wrench... Great way to destroy scope rings.Comment

I use the “crap” wheeler fat wrench. It’s so crappy it’s put on about 30 optics without an issue.Comment
