Rem 700 Action Screws
So I have ordered a Remington 700 barreled action in 6.5 creedmore, with a 24'' threaded HB.
Im going to pick up a temporary stock until mine arrives
Its a hogue over moulded stock. Factory on the rem 700 tactical AAC
My question is about action screws
From what I can tell they are
Front: 1/4''-28x 1.375
Rear: 1/4''-28 x 1.906
Center: 8-36 x 1.875
Im going with Oem bottom metal for now
Are these the right sizes? ( I think they are)
And would Edmonton Nut and Bolt have these?
I found what I think is the right set, but its in the states.
Any Ideas?
Appreciate it!

I bought the same thing, let me know if you find a set that works. I remember seeing some guy on CGN selling the action screws for about $5 shipped but I can't currently find it.

I was told Home depot lol
I highly doubt that but Im wondering if Edmonton nut and bolt would?
Its a common thread. And as long as they are long enough... I can always trim them to length
Even if the head is a bit different. Ive saw replacements that are torx

Edm Nut & Bolt will likely not have any 1/4" with a countersink head...I use these socket head bolts and they seem to work fine. Get them a little long and cut them to length with your dremel cut off.

I'm not good on "sizes" ... think those are just 1/4" standard fine thread...they fit the 700 action. Is there another screw in the center of the action you are getting?

Im not sure?
All the sites, and even Remington list 3 different screws
I would of guessed there are only 2?
But those are the 3 that come up as the set
Is there a 3rd??

The third screw goes through the front of the trigger guard on the ADL model. It is a smaller diameter screw.

According to the Remington website, it looks like there is a small bushing in there too.

If you go that route, be sure to get the proper length...some aftermarket stocks and bottom metal result in differences.

Because I bed my actions, the factory screws sometimes only engaged the action by a thread or so. The screw sets from Brownells are slightly longer, and I just shorten them as required.
