    Did I just ruin my rifle?

    Picked up a Savage 110 BL Series J in 30-06 last year and put a new scope on it earlier this year.  Put a few rounds thru it to quickly sight it in and put it away waiting for moose season.  Pulled it out yesterday and went to the range to verify it's still sighted in.  Worked flawlessly and on target for 7 shots.  Number 8 was way off target.  Cycled another round into the chamber, sighted and pulled trigger and nothing.  Trigger wouldn't move, like safety was on but it wasn't, in fact I couldn't move the safety.  That's when I noticed a piece missing out of the stock where the bolt locks down.  Found the piece lying on the ground beside me and don't know why it broke off.  Tried moving safety lever but no luck and packed up and headed home.  When I looked at it at home the safety worked normally  and the trigger worked normally too.  Did some further inspecting and found a space between the barrel nut and receiver (that's what I think it is).  The spacer/washer between the two is loose has about 1/8" space.  Something is wrong and I'm not about to fire this gun until I know it's safe.  Anyone have any ideas?
