Description
There is a reason this little Borka has followed precision shooters to the bench and the field for years. The heart of the kit is the American-made BTD1070-IP adjustable torque driver, calibrated to plus or minus 4 percent and adjustable from 10 to 70 inch-pounds in single inch-pound steps. It works on a simple lever-arm design that snaps or breaks over the instant you reach your setting, so there is no guessing and no white-knuckling a screw past where it should stop. Set your number, pull the handle, and you are done.
What the Borka Standard Kit Handles at the Bench
This covers the fasteners you run into most on rifles and optics. You get 29 chrome-plated S2 tool-steel bits spanning inch and metric hex, slotted, Torx, and Phillips, hardened to hold their edges under real torque. There is a compact ratchet handle with a 1/4-inch hex female and 1/4-inch square drive male, a pair of drive adapters, a 2-inch extension, and a 1/2-inch hex socket for ring nuts and larger fasteners. Whether you are mounting a scope, snugging base screws, or setting action screws to a manufacturer spec, the range and bit selection have you covered.
Why Shooters Keep the Borka Torque Kit in the Range Bag
Over-torquing is what ruins good glass and snaps ring screws, and this tool is built to stop that before it happens. Longtime users point out that scopes pulled from Borka-torqued rings come out without ring marks, and broken fasteners become a thing of the past. The all-metal driver weighs under six ounces and the whole kit tucks into a rugged Cordura pouch measuring roughly 8 by 5.5 by 2 inches, so it rides along whether you are at the shop or checking zero at a match.
Borka is built by Pro-Shot and backed by a U.S. patent, and the driver is designed to hold its calibration through normal use without needing to be sent off for service. For anyone tired of buying single-setting torque tools one value at a time, this one adjustable driver does the work of a whole drawer of them.

Frequently Asked Questions
What torque range does the Borka Standard Kit cover?
The BTD1070-IP driver adjusts from 10 to 70 inch-pounds in single inch-pound increments. That span handles the vast majority of scope ring, base, and action screw specs you will run into on rifles and optics. Two separate adjustment scales help you dial in lower and higher values with better resolution.
How accurate is the Borka torque driver?
It is calibrated to plus or minus 4 percent, which is tight enough for mounting quality glass without risking damage. Independent testing over the years has backed up that accuracy claim, and the design breaks over cleanly the moment you reach your set value so you cannot overshoot.
Does the Borka driver need to be recalibrated?
For normal shop and range use it is designed to hold its calibration without being sent off for service. The maker has stated it does not require regular recalibration unless you are running it hard in a mass-production setting. The all-metal build is a big part of why it stays consistent over time.
Will this kit work for mounting a scope and setting action screws?
Yes, that is exactly what it is built for. The 29-bit selection covers the hex, Torx, slotted, and Phillips fasteners common to rings, bases, and actions, and the 1/2-inch socket handles larger ring nuts. Users regularly note pulling scopes from Borka-torqued rings with no ring marks and no snapped screws.
