I just recently purchased a Savage (wood stocked) older (easy 80's) 110E .270. On the second shooting the interior of the bolt lost a part. It is
fractured and fell out. If anyone has a long action 110E bolt I could use for parts, I would willingly purchase it. Thank you.

Welcome Don, I've removed your phone number to protect your privacy. A little different here than on SGT.
I’m gonna bet it’s either the Bolt Retaining Pin or the Cocking Piece Pin that broke. My guess is the Bolt Retaining Pin, as I’ve never seen a Cocking piece Pin break. And you likely have the larger diameter Firing Pin(which is the reason the retaining pins broke) But could be something else.

So, you may need a couple pieces, including the Firing pin.
Thank you!
Yes, thank you. It is the bolt head retaining pin. It broke and I lost the ball bearing that I believe was in there also. Are all the E series the same? How can I tell which Series my 110E belongs to?
Thank you,
Don

Thank you Dave! It is the Bolt Retaining pin. I will try the one you posted!

You will probably need a firing pin as as well. I would just get the complete firing pin due to age of parts. Your firing pin has a larger diameter section that goes through the retaining pin. That’s why the retaining pins break frequently on those older ones.

Oh, btw… there is no ball bearing associated with that part. The only ball bearing is under the Extractor in the Bolt Head itself & possibly 2 in the Rear Baffle. But these are completely separate from the Retaining pin.
Don, welcome btw. And to answer your question from the Introductions forum, the series your 110E belongs to is precisely that! The “Series” is 10/110. All rifles from Model 10-16 & Model 110-116 belong to this series.
Was there some further piece of information you were looking for?
As Dave said, belongs to the 10/110 family. "E" prefix serial numbers were produced from 1982 thru 1989. There's a chart in the sticky topics at the top of this forum with serial number ranges - Dating Serial Numbers with a Letter Prefix.
If you change the pin to a new one you will need to drill it out for your firing pin. If you change the firing pin you will need to get a new bolthead unless you buy an oem original partnumber cross pin. The reason they broke was the material and HT.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
