I just re-read your post, and realized you already have bolts. The Powers used to be called the Rawls...6-piece?

Also, the powers 5 piece bolts are the best, they have a hex head and are internally sleeved so there is next to no failure unless you hit an air pocket. Oregon Wholesale Hardware in Bend OR has them, I haven't been able to find them locally yet. Tacoma screw and Acme Construction supply are the two that are listed according to the Powers distributor in Seattle, but neither of them carry.

shouldn' need SS unless you are drilling limestone due to corrosion. 3/8 X 2-1/4 should be fine for everything except sandstone and tuff, where 1/2 X 3 is better.

This really should be moved to spray.

Not a nice image, in my mind...
