Default #7 screw?

I have a wall fixture that's held up with two machine screws. I'm
changing the way it's mounted and need shorter screws. But the screws
are smaller than a #8/32 and bigger than a #6/32. I even tried metric
and couldn't find a match. What size might this be?


It seems to me that a lot of fixtures come with screws just as you describe,
like a sloppy 8\32. Why not cut the ones you have
