[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 513095, member: 24624"] Just guessing here... So, there's the safety factor pertaining primarily to headspace even if you're swapping one Rem 700 short action 308 bolt with another Rem 700 short action 308 bolt. But from an accuracy perspective, you'd want to pay particular attention to squaring everything and any tolerance issues pertaining to the bolt handle and diameter. A Rem 700 bolt may also be a cleaner swap than a controlled round feed such as Win Model 70 or Mauser 98 which have more mating surfaces. -- richard [/QUOTE]
