[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1063119, member: 2736"] I have not seen this but I can understand how the wrong bolt thread could cause it. I would be very hard to over torque it because of it being a machine screw and having to use socket head or blade screw drivers. Bur stranger things have happened before. My advice would be to take it to a competent Gun Smith and have him go to a 5/16 screw and solve the problem. The action screws should have at least a 5 thread engagement and be torqued correctly and there would be no problem. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
