I recently acquired a Remington Nylon 66. It’s an older model that has a larger head on the wind age screw. The screw I have is bent and I’m trying to track down an old original one. I purchased 1 from Jack First gun parts and it’s not quite right. Anyone have a gunsmith or parts guy that might have one?

That's what I figured. The supply of original has probably dried up then.

Mine has a large head screw on the rear sight elevation adjustment...
this has a Philip type slot , with a knurled edge .. it is finger adjustable..


the windage screw has no head , just a slot for a fine screw driver ...
Which are you looking for ?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Mine is the same. Great little rifle. I have killed literally hundreds of pounds of food with it. Have replaced the "unbreakable" stock three times. On my fourth now.

I coon hunted back in the 80's with my uncle and that was what we carried. Silver with the black stock Always wanted one of my own but just never got around to finding one that was clean. A fine little rifle


If I put my wife inside a high fence will her rack get bigger ?

My windage screw also is knurled but is slot headed. You could turn it by hand if it wasn’t bent.

I’ll try and figure out what year it is. I’ve got the Remington 22 Rimfire Rifles book and it states that the early models had this type of screw.

Interesting. Mine was new in 1970 so yours must be older than that

That's a new one on me. Hope you can find one.

Just a thought.............there were clones of these rifles made in South America. No idea of what years but if all else fails maybe another place to look.

Seems to me Big Bob told me about these years ago.

I’m guessing I won’t find a large head screw. Just want a factor one of either type.
