A torque wrench, like most measuring tools, is most accurate at the end of their scale.
I have three different ones to cover small readings, then up to 75 lbft, and one up to (and above) 110 lbft.

If you need even higher values, i.e. for wheel bearings/hubs, borrow one for the day.
Ask them for the calibration record!
