I just bought a new M11 Trophy Hunter XP in 6.5 Creedmoor. Question is; It has a cocking indicator that protrudes flush with the BAS when cocked and recedes when the trigger is released. Can I swap this bolt handle with the oversized BT (?) handle the same as I did with my older generation Model 10's? Is there something I should be aware of since it will apparently have more part(s) in the bolt barrel?

Thanks,
Jim

BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front): Yes.

Explanation: The cocking indicator is the rear end of the firing pin. You can easily put on a larger bolt handle as that does not affect the relative geometry or position the BAS and the firing pin.
