Savage bolt help needed

Have savage 111 bolt head retaining pin broke. Did my research figured it was large firing pin .150. Cant find any .150s in stock. Could i just change the firing pin to small and retaining pin to the .100 and keep same bolt head with large firing pin opening??

you need to drill out the hole in the new retaining pin. you need a drill press with a vise maybe.
