Spec on MDT ACC action screws? (Rem 700SA)

[boy412]

I've recently purchased a second hand MDT ACC chassis (Rem700SA) and the action screws that were provided are not the correct length. The longest one is too short for the rear and the short one is too long for the front.

:/

I've asked MDT to send me some new ones (their customer service has been awesome) but it may be a while and I'd really like to get this rifle assembled before a shoot this coming weekend.

Does anyone know the spec on these screws? Length, diameter, and pitch...

Much appreciated!

Google it, to be in a hurry you sure like to waste time making posts and sitting around waiting for an answer lol.

I'm not even being a dick, it's as simple as a few second google search and youre done.

At least one of of us thinking

I did actually do some searching prior to posting. The only info I found was torque specs, a video from MDT saying that yes…they DO provide action screws with their chassis, but not anything that answered my question. That was surprising…so I decided to ask here.

You just buy screws and they are trim to length

Take the chassis to your local ACE Hardware.
Look in the 1-4×28 bins and select the correct length.
Don't forget the washers.

Yep, I've got low profile stainless bolts that I can trim to length for all my rifles.
