After reading the AccuStock directions I made a dumb mistake. I thought the back screw of the trigger guard (for my 10 FCP - K) was the third screw and tried to tighten it down to 40 pounds. I know, what a dummy. I was still able to screw the stripped screw in but I am not able to apply much torque. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix the problem? Is there another screw one size larger that Savage makes for dummies like me?

Thanks,
Eric

Use larger screw or fill old hole with 30 min epoxy, let it set up, then drill a pilot hole and the use old screw
