Brilliant thanks matey, sorry to ask for a spoon feed on that but google was giving me nothing but thumb tacks……
Sorry, I've just re-read my post and it sounded a bit condescending, didn't mean it to read like that.
It was more to show that the Brownells option was the main one you'd find.

Not at all matey,
I just know there’s nothing as slightly annoying as when you are helping someone and when they ask for a link without bothering to google.

That brass studding is expensive, m3 3.37 for 50mm.
Try your local model shop. They stock brass rod and a couple of quid should get you a metre or so

Soooo, after my stock refurb, how I missed it don’t ask,
But my last shoot being ropey has now explained itself.
My no4 mk1 shot 1.5” group first time I shot it.
2nd time within 10” was difficult
I did a stock refurb, fitted a NGS scope mount and scope. Didn’t shoot it since but decided to strip it again to check the main screw bushing was correct length and noticed a crack in in of the draws.
Gave it a wiggle with a pick with the hope of re-adhesiving in situ.
The whole draw bolt handle side came loose. And separated from the stock.
What epoxy if any is worth an attempt. Before I replace the draw
I assume you've read Peter Laidler's draw repair guide?
Here, if you haven't.

He also states the important of using aerospace approved wood adhesive.
