Action Screws for BDL Bottom Metal

Actually, they are 1/4×28.
Don't know the taper on the head though.

They're not a standard sized head, they're smaller in diameter and shorter than your regular 1/4-28 flat head machine screw. I'll measure one tomorrow for angle and diameter if no one else pipes up tonight.

I checked out my set of BDL screws against a 1/4-20 flat head screw and the angle looked to be the same 82 degree taper but like it was mentioned before it has a lower profile and smaller diameter. The BDL head was about 1/8" tall and about 3/8" in diameter whereas the 1/4-20 was a half inch in diameter and slightly taller, about 3/16" I'd say.

Can someone tell me the specifications for Rem 700 BDL bottom metal action screws? I know they are 1/2"x28 socket head cap screws but what is the angle of the taper? 82 deg?

Many thanks for any intel. Rick

BAT Machine has replacement screw sets for the R700. The sockets are deeper than you will find at the hardware store.
