You can also call the Savage parts department. If you tell them what you are doing they will get you taken care of. Do remind them that you need the extra trigger guard screw.
You may find that you want the thicker bottom metal for the mag well. I'm probably going to upgrade so I can properly torque the screws.

The Boyd's website now lists the part numbers you need to order from Savage. I just did this last week and it worked fine. Don't bother buying new action screws (I got talked into it), they're exactly the same as what you have. At least, they were for me.
As for the thicker bottom plate, that's one solution. My plan is to bed the plate I have. Even without that, I was able to get sufficient torque.
The rear screw on the trigger guard is a problem. Savage sent me a tiny little woodscrew for that, and it was way short. I had something lying around that I used, but you might be prepared for that.

Boyds says they supply the tac stock to Savage for the TR.
Did any of you notice that there is space /gap between the stock and the threaded part of the gun, like it needs a spacer as to not flex the wooden stock when tighting the baceplate screws?
