Stripped screw issue
Number one son started to put his Skinner receiver sight on his Ruger #1 and discovered a screw head was stripped (Torx). Apparently his “new” gun at the gun shop was actually a returned within 30 days gun (he has had it for a couple of years now). Shy of taking it to a gunsmith and waiting six months, do you know of a way for us to get it out other than drilling it and pulling it that way? He was wanting to use it this season.
