    are bolt heads on Target action the same as regular actions?


    Do the bolt head on target actions differ from regular actions (short or long)? Going from 223 to 6br . if they are different where do i get them?

    Also are the bolts all one length in the target actions? thanks

    I believe they are the same as a regular short action.

    You'll need to buy a LH bolt head for a left port action or RH bolt head for a right port action. I believe there is only one bolt length for current short actions.

    I have a 300 wsm model 10 large shank and the mag. bolt face is longer than the 223/204 bolt face. Just today the brown man brought my new short action firing pin so I could convert it to the 223/204 bolt face. After swapping pins I have decided I need another short action.
