My 111 had a 7mm RM barrel, now gone, and the current bolt head should work fine for a 6.5 PRC. The standard belted magnum case head is also .532".
You do realize that the difference between .532" and .535" is only .003 and that the Savage bolt face is somewhere in the neighborhood of .550" in diameter. A difference of .018".
