So my circa 1904 win 95 is getting a 38 lyman reveiver sight. I notice the bolt don't come back far enough to allow for drilling/tapping rear hole. What's the super easy way to get the bolt back another 3/4" or so? I have full disassembly instructions and have had it down pretty far when I got it for a cleaning but don't want to go into that again. I'm also told the threads are 11/36. Anyone know where I can get a tap?

Thoughts appreciated by those in the know
