Assembling a bolt head from parts?

**BoilerUP** · 01-18-2011, 05:33 PM

What parts (other than a stripped bolt head) are necessary if one wants to "build" a complete bolt head from parts?

Thinking of converting a 7mm Rem Mag 110 to a .473 caliber, but I'd want to keep the magnum bolt head intact.

You need 6 more parts,
ejector extractor
ejector spring extractor spring
ejector pin extractor ball bearing
Not sure if that's the official names or not but Midway carries them.

Changed my mind....

If I bought a stripped .473 long action right eject bolt face, can I use all the parts from my magnum bolt face?

Is the magnum BH a controlled round feed? If so, not interchangable.

I *believe* it is push feed (7mm Rem Mag), but I'm on the road on business and can't look at it.

The only problem I can think of is getting the ejector retaining pin out without damaging it..... it will take a 1/16" pin punch which is not too easy to find..... other than that I swapped the extracter parts from my .473 to my magnum and am waiting on midway to get the pins back in stock
