What torque should the action screws be inserted to?
Or is it something I don't need to be concerned about?

45 ft lbs/5.1nm is what I torque to however it is worth experimenting up and down slightly as you can tune your group size very slightly by subtle changes to the action screw tightness.

Excellent.
Thanks.
Taking it apart to get screw cut and want to assemble correctly.
