Craftsman will do the job. Remember that the final torque number is not terribly important (58 ft/lbs 22R/E/T), just tighten everything to the same spec and in the proper sequence

Have yet to try one. I don't imagine being electric makes it worth the added price though.

Looking to buy or unsure how to use? I hope the first.

I prefer snap action.
