I just sold a brand new 243/308 Axis bolt head on this site last month for $35
Check the classified section
************************************************** ****************
my PTG bolt finally shipped today!!!!
question: can i reuse the bolts on the 223 bolt onto the new 308 bolt?
I just put a 110 243 barrel on my 308. Best cheap upgrade I've ever done. It shoots a quarter @100.
last part is in. i'll have to fit the stock to the new barrel. i'll see what else i have to do this week.
"Are not drop in"? What "proper gunsmithing" is required?
is it drop in, trigger got in. looks like i'll need a new stock, some small parts for the bolt head.
hmmm.....boyd's said they build the stock i need by the order and that would be 4 weeks.
I got this stock below before any of the rebarreling ideas, had it for a while but I am changing the barrel to a Criterion bull match barrel.
Would the stock be ok it i open it up to 1.100" for the barrel? or what? lol, with axis the options are limited with the recoil lug built into the stock.

CLASSIC SAVAGE AXIS DETACHABLE BOX MAG SHORT ACTION FACTORY BARREL CHANNEL PEPPER LAMINATE FINISHED
The Classic and a few others would not do well with a bull barrel. It's not impossible, but the forend is not shaped for wider barrels. You will likely end up with very thin (or no) rails of wood on either side of the channel. The Platinum has the same profile as the Classic, but it has an oval forend, which is better suited to opening up for a varmint or bull profile.
Ah ha! Found it: http://www.boydsgunstocks.com/how-to...nel-variations
my barrel vice can in today, time to get some bolts and a 1/2 wrench.
alright, lets see if the rifle will fit with the vise setup here....
I just need to fit the stock now, its like 15 or less minute job to put the change out the barrel.
done
Good Job , Looks great
