Your basically correct on the bolt head, barrel swap but will need too add the magazine and follower as well. Unless you open the receiver up the barrel needs too be small shank. Factory uses large shank barrels now but previously used small shank. When all is said and done (speaking from experience) unless this is going too be a swap barrel rifle it would be cheaper too buy the 270 WSM from the factory. Lately needed the 7mm WSM and was considering your proposed route. Ended buying what I wanted for little over $400. That was equipped with the DBM and bottom metal which normally adds about $100 too factory offerings. Located on one of the auction sites it was within reasonable driving distance so made day trip obtaining the rifle.
