Good Morning,
I want to buy parts from savage directly.
I tried few weeks back and their website was down for upgrade.
I see the site is up now.

I want to buy the actions screws, for wood stock pls

I am trying to build using a bvss laminate stock and I am finding that I have a size problem.
So I put in a the serial # for few of my wood stocked, and I got the following:

Front action screw: 100309
Rear action screw: 100157

Are these the longest screws for wood stock?

I hope you realize those are not wood screws, they are the 1/4-28 machine screws to hold in the action.
Go to local hardware store and buy the size you need (cheaper) or McMaster Carr and look for them. Buy a little longer and buy a nut to fit, screw the nut down then cut to length then unscrew the nut to clean the cut thread.This way you will always get the right length, no guess work.

Technically they are "Socket Head Cap Screws".
