    Help finding actions screws


    Hello everyone. This is my first new topic to post. I really like this forum. I have learned alot from looking at it every day. I am trying to do my first savage build. I have a mcgowan barrel and action from Jim and b/c medalist stock from stockys. The problem is i have no screws to attach stock to action. I called Jim and basically said call b/c. I called b/c they do not have any. I called midway and they do not have any. I can't get stockys on the phone. I do have some duck tape. Anybody know what to do. Thanks

    I get mine from an auto parts store here. Have to cut them down to fit cause there too long but no big deal w/ a dremel.

    This is what I had to do on one of my stocks, cuts have to be perfect or bolt will hit the allen bolts!

    Just mark the bolt with a silver Sharpie or something that will be there when you take it out! Very easy.

    Different stock takes different length bolts! Savage only supplies their OEM bolts.

    I agree, they should, but not all stock manufactures conform to Savage spec's! That was the case with one of my guns!
