First and foremost I like to thank everyone in advance for taking the time to answer my post. I got tired of searching for different components for my wife's .223 vs. my 6mm br so I decided to order a barrel for her rifle (that was the easy part). Now that that is done what part / parts do I need to order for the bolt so that this swap will work ?? ??? and whom can I order the necessary parts from ?? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
BigKev

All you need is a .473(22-250/308) bolt head and the appropriate magazine box and follower.

youcan buy them @http://www.midwayusa.com/browse/BrowseProducts.aspx?&tabId=9&categoryId=15856&categoryString=10636***10560***9146***&brandId=1778

or http://www.sharpshootersupply.com/

I would also suggest the proper go/no go guages also from Midway.

P.S. I will caution you that once you discover how easy it is you will spend a small fortune playing with savages! ;D
