Welcome to the forum from the TV, Oregon.
The torque spec should have been included on a small piece of installation instruction paper inside the blister package the base came in. It's sandwiched between the front and back of the pretty paper covers inside the blister package. If you just cut the base out of blister package then you may have missed finding the installation sheet.

I have a Big Boy .357 with the brass receiver. I bought the Henry Ring and Base set for it. I know what the torque is for the rings,but I can't find the torque for the 3 screws in the base. I need to know so I don't strip out the receiver. Thanks.
That's what i thought too, but no,it gives the torque value for the rings,but not the base. It just says to check with the gun company for the base torque.
