    Changing Bolt or Bolthead Striker Pistol


    Have a striker, may buy a second. What is the easiest way to change from .243 to .223? Change bolts, $110, or bolt heads, $55? If the no traper .223 barrel feels right on the striker, will want to change.

    Does striker require a special bolthead other than left hand?

    I have a 223 bolt head and front baffle. It's on the 308 Win M10 now. I put it on the 308 Win Striker bolt, it fits and seems to work fine. Haven't shot it. I leave ejectors off and pick the brass out rather than chase it. It's a few minutes to change bol theads, 30 seconds to change bolts.

    I need a standard short action right hand bolt head? Nothing special for the striker model?
