I have a Browning A-Bolt that uses 6-48 screws for the scope bases. One of the four holes is stripped.
Brownells makes a tap for this issue as well as oversize screws for the new hole. Given it is only one hole, I thought this might be the better way to go than having to take it to a gunsmith to cut 8-40 holes and then thread them. They would also need to enlarge the holes on the scope bases.
My problem is that Brownells won't get the .146x48 Oversize 6-48 Screw with Fillister Head back in stock until sometime in November. Does anyone know of another source for these screws?
I need only 1-2 of them and would be happy to buy them from anyone who might have some.
Thanks.
