The Volquartsen Hex-Head Takedown Action Screw (Volquartsen part no. VC10TD) is a direct replacement for the factory slotted screw that secures the action into the stock on the Ruger 10/22 and 10/22 Magnum. It’s a small part that solves a common annoyance: marred, chewed-up slotted screw heads from repeated takedowns with a flathead driver. Built from hardened steel, this hex-head screw is aimed at shooters who tinker with their 10/22’s bedding or free-float setup and want a repeatable, professional way to torque the action down every time.

Key Specifications

• Fits the Ruger 10/22 and 10/22 Magnum in place of the factory action screw.
• Hex head accepts a torque wrench, allowing precise and repeatable torque settings instead of guesswork.
• Made from hardened steel for long service life without stripping.
• Eliminates the marred, slotted-screw look that comes from repeated takedowns with a standard screwdriver.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this screw replace? It replaces the factory slotted takedown screw that holds the action into the stock on the 10/22 and 10/22 Magnum.

Why switch to a hex head? A hex head lets you use a torque wrench for consistent, repeatable clamping force every time you reassemble the rifle, instead of relying on feel with a screwdriver.
