Fat Wrench
Have used it several times already and seems to be very good. It's easy to set and use. However, I don't have another means to check the accuracy, but it seems about right when I check the tightness of the screws by hand.

The Wheeler fat wrench is a good tool to have. Great for small jobs like anti-walk pins and scope mounts. Can’t go wrong with Wheeler!

Good Add-on
Is this a professional gunsmith quality tool? Heck if I know. But as a recreational shooter, longtime gun enthusiast and occasional frustrated hunter, I can speak to its quality. Well built for a fair price. A good add-on to the gun workbench toolbox. When I reading tune-up articles or watch YouTube videos that pique my curiosity, and the article requires using a torque wrench I should be ready.
