Solid core wire and screw terminals

Hey all.

Got a question about screw terminals.
I'm planning on getting some solid core wire for some internal power wiring (eg: IEC -> fuse -> switch -> etc).
Now, when using stranded wire, screw terminals make good contact.

I can't picture getting the same kind of contact when using solid core, as the wire doesn't "squish".

What have your experiences been like when using solid core and screw terminals ?
