Re: Slotted action screws
back before they discovered Allen screws. If the stock was changed, why not the screws?
Re: Slotted action screws
I just bought a old 112v single shot with factory stock and slotted action screws. Im getting a new barrel and having the action bedded. I will ask my smith to use allen screws..

I'll do the same when I rebarrel it.
Re: Slotted action screws
The sloted screws was used up into the late 1980's early 1990's.
Re: Slotted action screws
Might be the rifle originally had a plastic stock? Changing to a wood or laminate stock requires longer screws than plastic. FWIW Brownells sells longer slotted screws for Savage.
