[BadRonald]

Anyone know of a source for the small screws that join the top and bottom Optilock rings?

Let me guess, they stripped?
I have 2 out of three set that the ring screws stripped.
Was thinking of doing a complaint.
You would think your getting quality for the price we pay.

I got a screw with no threads right from the factory package. I called Stoeger and received a bag with some new screws in the mail within a few days.

Yes, stripped the head at about 10 in*lbs. I have always tightened to 15 without issue. This is the
first problem screw I have had out of many, but even with proper torque it looks like some are lemons.

I stripped one a couple of days ago, just snugging the screws up. Couldn't believe it. That's the second one, both stainless if that's significant. I just pirated replacements from a set of one inch rings. (Reason for the swap) but should replace those one of these days.
