source for 6-48 screws for scope mounts

[Tudenom]

Anyone know where I could get my hands on a few 6-48 screws?

I got a set of parker hale B20 scope mounts but unfortunately one of the screws has stripped threads and is unusable. The screw is a bit short, and has a broad head, so it might be a bit tricky to find something that will work:

Overall length = 0.275"
Head thickness = 0.088"
Head diameter = 0.225"

Luckily the base has a tapered hole so the head diameter can be smaller, shouldn't be a problem.

If I have to I'll go down to wholesale sports and buy a cheap mount that has screws similar enough to work (they have a 30% discount right now on bases).

Used screw bins at your LGS/GS or Gun Shows. That's the only place I found 6-48s replacement screws for my vintage Leopold scope rings.

My lgs is good for stuff like that , they usually dig into a bin and give them for free if you're a semi regular customer and cheap enough if your not.
