[QUOTE="geargrinder, post: 1283524, member: 6705"] Why are you replacing the bolt head? There is nothing to be gained from the PTG piece. If you swap bolt heads you will have to check and probably re-headspace your barrel. The headspace will only be the same if the distance from the back of the bolt head lugs to the bolt face is the same between the PTG and factory bolt head. Not likely. [/QUOTE]
