Fudddddddgggeeeeeeee

Dropped this one in between the cracks of the deck and cannot get to it. It is a little longer than the rear bolt. Anyone know the measurements? I was going to try and get another one. May have to call Ruger Monday... Looked on the online schematics but they did not give much help... TIA

Is the boogie man under the deck?

No. I cannot get under it because it is enclosed.

What did you say?

Magnet...?

Pull or cut out a board and get a flashlight, string, then a magnet like MOGC said.

Go RAR front bolt fishing.

Magnet is a good idea. Thanks

Call Ruger customer service if you can’t get it.

Dynamite?

Weatherby wanted about $12 to send one. F'that.

If you can't retrieve it, take the rear bolt to a hardware store and match the threads and get a couple that are long enough. Be prepared to grind off a few threads. Ace usually has gun screws and bolts, at least the larger ones do.

I have mostly Savage centerfires and they are notorious for having the front screw too long. I grind a thread and a half off the bolt when I get the rifle.

1/4-28× 7/8" in my RAR 358 with rotary mag stock. Looks like a regular allen screw, 3/16" internal hex.
