The fact of the matter is that the screws were all fitted individually when new at the factory with screws that had high heads and were then dressed down after the slot was timed. So, if you are re installing the same screw in a replacement stock, it may not line up perfectly or it may take some trial and error to get there.
The position of the screw when you start threading it in and even the angle of the new hole can effect now the head of the screw seats. You may need to plug, re-drill and try again if it is not working out for you. Or fit a new screw.
