Is there any difference between a SF and CF bolt head?
Sean
No. Difference between stagger and center is in the magazine design.
I may be wrong but my understanding is that the centerfeeds have a mag that attaches to the stock, where as the stagger feeds have a magwell that attaches to the action, so it comes out of the stock with the action. The boltface shouldn't have anything to do with either.
Thanks guys.

Crap. I ordered an SF stock, not realizing the action I was using was a CF action.
My single shot adapter fits into the well. Can I put a spacer under the adapter to hold it in place and use this stock and live with the single shot adapter? Any thoughts?
If you're looking to do a single shot setup i think you'll be fine.
Kinda what I had figured. Now, I need to find something to use as a spacer.

Bolt heads are the same, as for your stock:
If you have a Long Action, then the action bolts have the same spacing (5.062" between centers) regardless of mag type, so with your follower it should work great. Mine does.
If you have a Short Action, then it will work, but you have to relocate the front hole in the stock. Staggerfeed's have a 4.27" spacing between centers and the Centerfeeds have 4.40" between centers of the action bolts.
I have just put the follwer and spring under the CF follower and works fine. Holds mine in nice.
Boots,
I cant thank you enough. I was considering filling in the void with devcon or some other filler material. The action bolt holes line up with my stock no issue, and I knew it was a long action so I have no issue there.
I will give the follower a shot.
