Looks like the Rifle Tuning block is made of metal. Any chance you're getting electrolysis that's weakening the stock screws? Would some sort of dielectric barrier be a good idea regardless of switching to SS screws?

 
I found mine just before failure and they were bent badly and seem to be made out of aluminum that don't bode well for lateral movement. I found some stainless screws and have not had a problem since.
