tang screw thread
« on: October 09, 2003, 05:28:02 PM »
I have a 1902 rem rolling block that was in 7mm.  It will be rebarreled.  Does anyone know the thread size of the tang screw?  I get 26 tpi, but I can't find that in the tap and die charts.  Thanks. :?

That RRB tang screw should be a 1/4-28.  Even the licensed foreign-manufactured actions used English SAE size screws.
