Well, the screws are in true, but whatever you guys say.
these ARE the tuners that you're referring too ..correct ?

I'm not sure you're going to be satisfied if you believe that "tuning stability" has anything to do with the tuners. It's really not possible unless a machine is horribly damaged - and then it's still rare - for the machines to slip or in any way go out of tune once they're set. High quality tuners with sealed/cast cases work smoothly and are a joy to turn; vintage style tuners with stamped covers are stiff to turn so you have to crank them a bit to get them free before they turn. However the conventional wisdom is that any tuner will hold once it's in tune.
If you think your guitar goes out of tune too easily, it's probably an issue with the nut slots binding and a competent tech can fix it faster than explaining it.
