    FYI, the weatherby vanguard bolts are actually a bit different to the Howa ones, and will not drop straight in. I have had to modify a few Howa ones to fit the vanguards for guys who had lost them. Job usually done for insurance company. Main difference is in the extraction cam area. When H&F had the wby agency parts supply was problematic. Steve Collings has the agency now, so hoping that parts supply and availability should improve. Not sure if he has any bolts in stock yet, but I did suggest it to them last year when they were asking about what they should be keeping on hand for service/spares, etc.

    Dean.
