Hey Guys,

Never have I been a fan of flathead screws, and the action screws on my rifle are just that kind. I was hoping to swap out to something that would work well that was at least philips, preferably allen or torX. Any ideas?

Thanks for the look,

Brandon

My guess is that it would be just as cheap to head to the local bolt-house. Something like a Fastenall.

2scars - check out a thread I started in the stock discussions: http://www.savageshooters.com/showthread.php?49223-Action-Screws

I haven't uploaded photos yet, but am going to be disassembling and then doing final assembly tonight or tomorrow. Will take photos along the way and post in that thread as well as a build thread I'll start.

If you want a light weight fastener you could always go Titanium - http://www.ti64.com/product_p/5209.htm
