Any difference in bolts between CF and SF rifles?

I have a .243 that I have built off a Center Feed short action. I recently acquired a new .223 that is Stagger Feed. I'm wondering if I ever decide the rebarrel the .243 CF into a .223 or .204 ruger, could I just grab the .223 bolt from the Stagger Feed rifle and be good to go. Seems like it would be fine, but I know Savage changes stuff all the time, and I didnt want a bolt that might be 50 thousands off or something and cause a kaboom! So, basically are the Center feed and Stagger Feed bolts the same?

Yes they are the same.

If you're switching barrels, bolts, and actions around you still need to headspace properly.

Oh yea... The head spacing will be done with great care! Thx for the reply
