Aero precision bolt head

I have a 223 aero bolt head can it be enlarged to use 22 arc brass. Perk
 
Wouldn't it just be easier to get a x39 bolt head?
Yes,

The 6.5 Grendel or the 7.62x39 bolts should work just fine, And I'm sure someone out there is selling bolt heads that are represented as Arc bolts.

The parent case for the Arc is Grendel, The parent case for the Grendel is 7.62x39.

 
I would use a 6.5 grendel but they have not come out with one. Shows on their website but never in stock. I was looking to see if the 223 head could be opened up for the arc case. Yes it is a bolt action solus action.
 
Have you ever tried to call Aero. If you want to waste a couple hours like I Did. Gave up the first time after a hour.
 
Looks like the Solus action uses a sliding plate type of extractor similar to a Savage or Stolle Panda. With that being said, it would definitely be harder to modify than a Sako extractor type of situation. Good close up pics of the bolt head would help us to possibly help you out. Thinking on this a little more, this may be a fairly easy conversion depending on how much material is available to modify on the extractor lip. Pics please.

I was unaware that Aero was making bolt actions. Paul @ Boltfluter is the man for the job if you want to convert your existing one, If anybody can do it he can.
 
I have three of their Solus bolt actions a 22 Br, A 6bra, And a 6 BR. I have a 223 bolt head that I would like to make the 22BR into a 22 ARC.
 
Yes sir, they aren’t needed there either ;)

Sadly, many bolt guns are doing it Seekins, Aero, Fierce, Kauger and Christensen…just off the top of my head. Maybe Falkor…it’s crazy and I scratch my head wondering exactly what problem are they thinking they are solving?

You know who knows those names the most? AR guys. :)

I think dual ejectors has SOME LIMITED value in a semi-auto. If I had a bolt action with dual ejectors... I'd unpin one.
