I just bought a new Browning Shortrac in 270 wsm .
I also went to Gander and picked up some weaver grandslam mounts and rings .
On the package it tells you to grind down the front screws for clearance .
Only problem is it doesnt say how much.
This is a very small screw as it is .
I called weaver customer service ,and the guy says Oh, ya, I see what your talking abought .
I said this model has been out a few years now and others listed on the application for the same mount have been out even longer .
He says its the shortest torque screw they can get .
What kind of an answer is that , I,d like the right length screw , One that I shouldnt have to grind down to work correctly .
Anyone have this problem ??
I ,m going to take a ride over to a gun smith to see if he may have the right length crews .
If you look up Browning under Weaver mounts you will see what I mean .
Kinda frustrating , $ 1,000.00 GUN , $15.00 MOUNTS AND 20CENT SCREWS ????
Weaver seams to be laid back and not to concerned with the problem .
