[Biscuit]

can any of you fine gentleman tell me which size of these plugs I need to plug the sight holes in rem 700 barrels? I want to plug them, file them smooth before re-bluing.

6-48 is what you need but, you don't need those with the slot. Just insert a regular screw and and cut it off. Be sure to peen the edges before you file it down.
