What torque should be used when mounting a Leupold Mark IV M3? Is it imperative to have it set at the proper torque? Will moderate tension by hand suffice?

Copied from another site and is what I use on all my setups:

IP = inch pounds.

Base screws: 30 IP
Windage screws: 30 to 40 IP
Rings, aluminum: 10 to 15 IP
Rings, steel: 15 to 20 IP
Stocks without pillar bedding, wood, fiberglass, synthetic: 40 IP
Stocks with pillar bedding: up to 65 IP
