Yes. And it's called the bolt plug.

Actually, bolt shroud seems to be quite popular.

You are right that most after-market manufacturers call theirs a bolt shroud. But Remington calls it the bolt plug. So hows about we compromise and call it a bolt plug/shroud.

If one thinks about it
It is interesting how so little attention has been paid to making these plugs fit better. The slop in the fit is a known accuracy killer yet few have done anything to fix this issue and no manufacturer I have heard of has come up with a good replacement.

You are right. Most of them are pretty sloppy. I have modified a couple of mine with nylon plugs that ride on the top of the action tang. But, you know what? I still don't shoot well if I ignore the flags.

Fixing the ills that inhabit "shrouds/plugs" has been a standard for not only Remingtons, but also many Customs. There is sort of a cottage industry that has cropped up improving this very criticle area........jackie

I have not seen
and it would be nice to know a source for having one's bolt / shroud situation corrected. I noticed with my new BAT the situation had been dealt with as is my Hall B. Neither of them are Remington Clones, in that area at least. I think there are a lot of us who would take advantage of a service someone was offering for cleaning up this problem.
