So what did you end up doing, did you send the ACCURA back for a Omega? Did you ever find out what the size of the screws were? I have only used CVA's scope mounts and they fit fine. I have a older set of CVA Universal Scope mounts and a newer set of CVA Durasight Z2 Alloy Scope Mounts and both the screws from these fit fine. It would be nice to know what the proper size screw is in case I change to a different scope mount from CVA's brand to someone elses.
