    Bolt wiggle


    I have an older 110, that the bolt wiggles on, when closed. Not the whole bolt, just the handle. Is this normal, or is a washer missing? It makes contact with the cocking cam when closed. But the rattle is a little annoying. Honestly I need to look in the safe at the others to compare, but they are newer.

    I will check that, it is definitely not loose enough to hand tighten, I checked that in the field, but forgot to check with screwdriver.

    OK checked it, almost one full turn loose. Duh! Can't believe that I dropped the thought, when I COULDN'T HAND TURN IT. As long as I have been working on these rifles, Amazing where the mind wanders off to sometimes. I'll go looking for it as soon as I get off here.

    LOL. Overlooking the obvious is easier than you think sometimes. Happens to all of us.
