I presume this is a Mod 0 Build. Don't you already have the action screws or does this build require a different set of screws?

Crane used heavy duty Allen head bolts instead of regular Remington action screws, including the threaded recoil lug which also used a bolt. I need those three parts, as my stock was missing them, but it’s no biggie once cut to proper length.

Well, in addition to Navy SEAL rifles made at Crane since the 1980s-90s, make sure you never look at the bottom metal bolts on USMC sniper rifles made at Quantico, VA since about 1978 - all those “ugly” action bolts might offend…
…maybe this old 1981 article on the above USMC sniper rifles explains why this has been done for 40 plus years on precision military sniper rifles:
….but if you like the hunting rifle look with the factory recessed bolts, that’s your choice. I’m choosing the military bolts to go with my pricey military stocks. To each their own of course…

I have been meaning to post an update to the project for the past few weeks just so everyone knows the status. FYI and update all blanks have been ordered for the project, when I ordered the blanks from Lilja I asked them if I had any time to add any additional quantity to the order? They told me I have until mid August to add any additional quantity, then at that point the quantity will be permanently locked in. Just in case anyone else needs a Mod 3 barrel or wants to add an additional now is your opportunity...
had a huge bag of these. i had to mix and match them to fit with my rifles. They were cut to length by crane.
