Savage firing pins

[46490]

Will a savage firing pin from a 308 bolt nose fit into a 223 bolt nose on a Model 10?

 

[GLShooter]

Yes. I do it all the time.

You'll need a 223 size bolt head.

You'll either have to take the extractor, extractor ball and spring, ejector spring and ejector from your original bolt head or buy new ones. https://www.gunshack.com/savage-bolt-head-parts-kit?keyword=savage&category_id=0

There is a small difference in extractors between a 223 and 308 size bolt head. They will interchange, but the wrong one won’t work very well. I learned that one the hard way….lol
