[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1497095, member: 12995"] Order the bolt you want before you send off your parts. Go ahead and buy every part you want on the finished product. It will cost you more up-front for the extra bolt, but less in the end, because the smith is only headspacing the rifle and lapping and truing the 1 new bolt when he blueprints your action, not the original, then paying him to do it all again with the new bolt down the road. You're missing bullets, powder, and primers... But that's kind of a given. :D There's lots of smiths in Idaho, probably a couple on here. Go to the Gunsmithing section of the forum, and start a thread asking for suggestions of who is reputable and who to go to. I'm sure there's a few folks from Idaho on here that will be glad to help you out on a recommendation. [/QUOTE]
