[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1514574, member: 2736"] I just look at the major diameter of the existing screw/bolt and compare It to the different charts for all other bolts/screws with the same or near the same thread pitch. Sometimes I have to make the screw or bolt from a larger screw/bolt to fit the new threaded hole by turning the rest of the screw and head down to the original size. I realize that Not everyone has the equipment to do this, but i often have to make special parts for problems, So I'm use to doing things like this. You can even install a pillar with a larger thread inserted into the action and drilled and taped to fit a shorter screw of the same original thread and pitch. The Remington 788 has a similar system on the rear action screw tang. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
