Where is the best place to get a new left hand ss bolt. I have a switch barrel rig and it would be nice just to change bolts and not have to do bolt head swaps in the field. And is there anythings that would cause problems with this that I am missing. Thanks for your help

MidwayUSA has replacement bolts but I don't know if they have them in left hand Stainless. Check thier website.

MidwayUSA does have them in stainless but they are only showing the WSM available while the .223 and .308 models are back-ordered 30+ or 60+ days. They don't show any left hand long action bolts when I search.

yeah I was wanting to avoid that long of a wait but guess that will have to do, At least I can swap the old way till it gets here. Thanks for the help.

So are you wanting a short action left hand stainless?
Any chance it is for a WSM?

If not swap the bolt head you've got onto it and put the WSM head aside.
