I have a Win. Model 70 that had worn out receiver threads. So I bought the oversize 6-48 screws and tap from Brownells and fixed it. However I should also mention that the oversize screws were just barely too big to go through the holes in the base of the scope mounts, so I had to drill them out slightly bigger. No big deal though, and I've had no problems whatsoever. So that's one solution or just go with the bigger 8-40 screws like Bill suggested. 'Course if you go with 8-40 screws I'm pretty sure you'll need new bases designed to work with these larger screws.
