    Information etc. needed


    What is the twist for Savage Stevens sporter barrels in??
    22-250
    243
    25-06
    308
    Next, I have a 22-250 barrel on the way, it had sights, none now. What size blank = "just threaded rod with a screwdriver slot" screws do I need to fill the holes? Where can I get these blank screws? How many do I need?
    Is there a place I can find the ctgs that fit various bolt heads? How many bolt head sizes are there?
    Thanks for the help;
    joe b.

    www.savagearms.com will tell you twist rates

    "Where can I get these blank screws? How many do I need?"
    Probably Brownells, or any bolt/fastener supply house, as to the question of How many YOU need ???.....Count the holes ::)

    Bolt heads are a lot of places, Brownells, Midway, etc.
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.

    They are called plug screws and are 6-48 thread.You can get them at brownells,they are not cheap though.
    Willing to give back for what the sport has done for me!

    Last time I needed plug screws I asked my smith and he handed me about 50. Might be worth a try.

    Don't bother with the plug screws, just fill the hole with a black crayon.

    The gun shouldn't be sitting in the car...you should be out shooting it. ;D

    I'll try him, what's his adddress? Does he have any black crayons? I don't think crayons come in black.
    Does he know the twist in Savage 22-250, 243, 25-06 and/or 308 barrels?
    Thanks;

    If he has a tuperware stock, I believe that will melt quicker than the crayons if left in a hot car!
