You might be $$ ahead to just go with a HP bolt.

HP bolt? What it is?

BCM® AR15 Bolt Assembly (HP/MP)

The bolt assembly is shot peened for strength, includes tool steel machined extractor, extractor spring, gas rings, and is Magnetic Particle Inspected (MPI).

JP bolts are works of art.

Since you have an AR-10 or LR308, strongly suggest the JP Enterprises High Pressure Enhanced Bolt. DLC (diamond like coating) makes cleanup a breeze. Just a very small dimple in the primer.

Should have mentioned that my AR 10. is an Armalite

I had always been told shot peening was for stress relief, not for "increased strength".

Stress relief or strength neither will made the firing pin any tighter.

I looked into this myself a few years ago and nobody would do the work. I need to look threw my library though, I might have a good rite up on the subject.

Just go with JP Rifles High Pressure bolt in your choice of caliber. You'll be glad you did.

+1 on the JP bolt. It'll cost you less than having a smith bush one. And you end up with a spare bolt when you're done.

Carlsbad on the forum did an AR10 bolt for us. He did a great job, I might add. The finished bolt stop the primer flow.

Yes, JP is the quick solution, the problem we had at that time, his are just for RH bolt. Don't know either if they offer theirs in LH config now.

AR acronym for Armalite?? Now used for every similar platform!

There's almost nothing you can't discover or learn on YouTube.

+1 for the JP bolt. I was experiencing pierced primers on a mil spec bolt. Changed the firing pin a few times before purchasing the JP bolt. Problem solved. JP has a better gas seal too.
