Converting a 12 LRVP Left Port

[brgipple]

Hello all,

I have a 12 LRPV Left Port (#18145) chambered in .223 1-7 twist. I am thinking of swapping it over to 6.5 Creedmore and i'm just wanting to make sure that everything will work. I've had the LRPV for several years and well.... it just doesn't get shot as i have other .223's that i shot more. Since i haven't spent a lot of time with the LRPV i just want to make sure it is possible and what i would need to change.

I know i would need to change the bolt head (.223 - 0.384 & 6.5CM - 0.470) and barrel, anything else? Any internals to the bolt need to be changed?

Who are the recommend suppliers of bolt heads?

Of course i may just keep the .223 barrel and bolt head so i could switch back. If i was to keep the old parts, would you recommend just getting a whole new bolt for the 6.5CM?

Thanks for your time
