Default Tikka 658 barrel screws.

I just took the front sight off my Tikka 658 in 338 win mag. I put the screws back in except one that was stripped out.

Are there screws out there that sit into the barrel to be flush? If so where? Western gun parts?





Thanks all.

Yes Western Gun Parts should have them. Try to identify the thread pitch first though.

I found some screws for my Blaser shotgun at Fastenal as long as you have a sample, they probably have what you need, or can get it quickly.

Holy crap. You’ve got $40 worth of primers just rolling around on your bench. Are you rich or something??? LOL

Western Gun Parts. Keep calling back until a guy answers. A little more helpful than the gal. She will likely ask you for a part #.

Haha.. When you get primed brass and have no idea what the primers are - they sit in the bench. Was a long day on the reloading bench. Trying to catch up! Got primed brass from an estate. Tough to punch them out and let them sit there.

I figured western gun parts would be the best. Thought someone might have a gem somewhere else cause as stated... Sometimes it's difficult to explain.

You are looking for grub screws, if I understand correctly. Anybody who does much gun work likely has some laying around. I have a ton. Maybe PM member Rembo, he's near you and I bet might fix you up.
