Fastenal has oval heads at a cheap price, but you have to buy a bunch. If they exist close to you.

I like Fastenal.

For bronze (and brass) screws, Jamestown is a good source, and I have had good luck with mail-order from them (even across the USA 'Northern Border'...)

If you do buy Frearson screws, spend the few cents to get a Frearson driver bit...
