A roll of duct tape makes for a relatively effective yet soft hammer in a pinch! I rarely have a rubber mallet, but I always have duct tapeNever happened with any of my Weatherby Mark V's ( YET ) but occasionally does with my Heavy Savage 110 in 308 . Bolt lifts easily but need a gentle tap to pull it back. A small rubber mallet will be added to my range bag. Just in case.
