Need some help finding either a set or separate drill bit and tap for the 8-40-28 screws that come with the B Square scope mount for these. Hard time finding one online in Canada that is available. Those more knowledgeable, do you know a reasonably priced source for these online that I can order from. Also want fairly good quality, don't want the bit or tap snapping. I believe I need a #28 bit. Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Brownells sells one tap and one drill bit at a time. You don't need to buy a set. Part numbers 891-128-140WB and 395-840-001WB.
KBC Tools parts numbers 1-372-032 and 1002AX-2800.
How are you going to get the holes correctly located?

I did more searching and found the taps and bits I needed. Thanks. For some reason the searches using Bing weren't showing anything for Brownells. I found Google worked better. A friend has a machine shop but has never needed these size bits and taps. So I am all set now. Just have to await till they arrive. Thanks for the direction and help.
