Screws for stock

[steve1833]

Hi folks,
I am in the process of fitting a pic rail to the fore end of my Tikka UPR stock.
I have found a rail that utilises the 2 sling stud holes drilled at factory.
Any idea what screws I can use to fit the rail using the factory pre drilled holes to save drilling the stock again ? Thanks

Probably an email to GMK or Tikka direct would be your best option as although most threads on Tikka are metric the sling studs could be the more common 10/32 or ⅜ to cater for the American market.

Or buy one of these and see what fits.
