way back in 2002 or 03, I bought the screws for my mill conversion and I can say that I have NOT been dissatisfied.
Mine was for and RF31 with homemade double nuts for zero backlash.Art

going strictly on memory, I think it was +/- .006/ft. Then I took the second nut and spring loaded it to I think about 75# pre-load. You can see how I did it on my web site:
