I've ordered hundreds of bolts from Wicks, many in onesies and twosies, and

You order bolts from Wicks by part number, not by grip or length.

I agree with Mark.  I've been ordering from Wick's for almost 14
years now and I don't EVER recall getting the wrong bolt or
part for that matter.

The buyer determines the "grip length" needed.  The bolt chart has
the "Nom." and "grip" spec's in the first colume.  Find the bolt with
the grip length you want, decide what type bolt you want, i.e. drilled
head, drilled shank, etc., and determine the AN - - - part number to
order.  The only time I got the wrong size bolts is when I didn't
determine the "grip" length properly.

Something you builders just starting out might want to consider is
adding a few bolts and other hardware to each order you place.
It doesn't take long to build a nice inventory on hand and you don't
have to wait or pay shipping each time you need a bolt.  I would
often add 5 of each AN - - - dash # up to say a 3 inch (length) bolt,  
add 100 washers, 100 each of different type nuts, etc.
