The metamagnetic transitions in single-crystal rare-earth nickel borocarbideHoNi_{2}B_{2}C and ErNi_{2}B_{2}C have been studied at 1.9 K with a QuantumDesign torque magnetometer. The critical fields of the transitions dependcrucially on the angle between applied field and the easy axis [110] forHoNi_2B_2C and [100] for ErNi_2B_2C. Torque measurements have been made whilechanging angular direction of the magnetic field (parallel to basal tetragonalab-planes) in a wide angular range (more than two quadrants). The results areused not only to check and refine the angular diagram for metamagnetictransitions in these compounnds, but also to find new features of themetamagnetic states. Among new results for the Ho borocarbide are the influenceof a multidomain antiferromagnetic state, and ``frustrated'' behavior of themagnetic system for field directions close to the hard axis [100]. Torquemeasurements of the Er borocarbide clearly show that the sequence ofmetamagnetic transitions with increasing field (and the corresponding number ofmetamagnetic states) depends on the angular direction of the magnetic fieldrelative to the easy axis.Comment: 3pages (4 figs. incl.) reported at 50th Magnetism and Magnetic  Materials Conference, San Jose, CA, USA, 200
