How tight should the bedding screws be

[S.B.]

In a Russian Mosin Nagant  M44 carbine?

I imagine you really mean the action/receiver screws.
On a typical bolt action, the front screw should be down tight, not crushing tight, like a headbolt on a Chev 350, but tight.
The rear screw should be brought up snug, then a tad more.
Many stocks have a pillar in the wood to maintain the distance. Get the feel for what Ive said above and it will be repeatable without use of a torque wrench.

gcrank1, not exactly an answer but, I'll respect your rights to an opinion. I was looking for more of a SWAG?

Swag: Scientific Wild Ass Guess......?
Well....just thought it might have provided an 'approach' to get you going if the thing was apart and you didnt know what to do.

BTW, when I was messing about with bolt guns more some 25-30 yrs ago I used 'my' recommendation to you on the 'feel' for torque on the front screws and would do the back as suggested, but vary it if I was not satisfied with the groups. I always back off more than needed and bring it back up (but a loose screw is never an option). My mentors were fine shots/workmen.
As always, YMMV, but mine has been very good.
When you find where your rifle is happy, note the inch pounds of torque for future reference.
