fieldwanderer Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Not as such but if you're stuck I'll find the thread size and other measurements so you can look them up elsewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fieldwanderer Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 I haven't got the base or the screw unfortunately, apart from what's on my rifle. I do have a pair of rings though and an m5 x 0.8 is very very close, if not correct. I can't comment on the head size but I'd go for a 10mm long thread (no shoulder so to be correct it's a machine screw). Hope that gets you out of a hole,so to speak. If I were you, I'd measure the clearance hole in the underside of the base (diameter and depth) and order screws that will clear it easily AND a bottoming tap m5x0.8 just to tidy the thread in the rings (or alter them very slightly to suit). I found the thread size by trying an m5 tap in the ring, it screwed in fairly easy with only my fingers but did scrape a tiny amount off as it went. I'd still be 100% confident that the original screw would work fine but I'll leave that up to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that.I think I'll go to rs components and see if they have anything that will suit, Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
