I can't remember if the early bolts had the s/n on them or not, but I know all newer rifles will have the last 4 digits engraved on the top of one of the lugs on the bolt head.

This explains the response from savage to the OP. I just checked a couple of centerfeeds in the safe that haven't had a bolt or bolt head change and the last 4 digits matched.
Good to know at a gun show (leverage ��).
