The name of that screw is the 'rear sight recoil arresting screw' apparently, and it appears that I used it correctly.
About halfway down the post is Hectors view on it.

Setting up a DIANA 460 for Iron Sights

After more than 10 years after its introduction, the DIANA 460 has already become a "Classic". No other gun displays the power, the accuracy and the elegance of this svelte lady. 22-24 ft-lbs yields...

Nope, here's a quote from Hector

"The rear little screw is a vestige of old practices and design. It SHOULD go away, but it hasn't. As many things in life, it is done because it has always been done.

If you REALLY want a screw drop me a line/PM. But it will NOT be a scope stop. The screw is too small for that.
T-05 guns have rails with 2 holes for stop pins, T-06 guns have 4 holes."

Think what you want and it may be fine with the peep but it is not intended to be a stop screw.

I'll accept that, well pointed out!

I will continue with it in place for now, and will honestly relay any issues, if they occur.

Use those black flies as targets! No shooting here. Youngest daughter and 13 month granddaughter here all week. They left yesterday to go see her in-laws so we’re recuperating today ha ha. Planned to shoot a little but been raining all day.

fixed the new to me Silver streak . The bolt was stuck very hard to use , i mean put my finger around the bolt handle then my other hand around also and try to move the bolt back . Ballistol to the rescue . a drop on the bolt move a bit , couldn't move fully . repeat moveing the bolt and cleaning dirty oil off . Finally got it to move as it should . not a springer but shot it anyway .😉

took out TX200 and HW97 for a little competition , ended in a tie both winners shot spinners out to 40 yards .

They can be such a pain in the butt. I don’t think they have legs they land with their teeth. Crow

Evil little things. Have to plan trips to NB around them. Can’t stand to go outside when they’re bad.

I don’t get them too bad. Go on the other side of the lake and they will eat you alive. They don’t play fair. Crow
