Savage 110 High Country scope rale screw size??

[jrebel]

Anyone have a Savage 110 High Country that knows what the screw size is for the scope rail??  I know my newer savages have the 8-40 and the older had the 6-48.  I can't find anything that references what size is on the High Country.  My guess is 8-40 but would like to confirm. 

Thanks

Yes 8 40 for some weird reason they found it convenient to
Change it from all their other rifles

Update for anyone that may be looking in the future.   The high country is drilled and tapped for 6-48.  The two ultralite I have are 8-40.   Not sure why don’t stick with one size?   I got lucky and when I ordered my EGW base, I paid the extra 5 dollars for the extra screws.   It came with both sizes so I was set and ready to go.   


Also got lucky and the rifle loves my hand loads that were loaded for my sons rifle.  Shot a 5 shot 1/2 group out of the gates.   No need to work up a load and can get straight to bear killing.  Pretty impressed with this rifle so far.
