Surgeon 591 boltface repair suggestions?

[slm9s]

A stuck case resulted in damage to the boltface of my 591. I am looking for someone who could fix this for me. Surgeon said they'd be happy to sell me a new bolt. When repaired, can this be changed to a different type of extractor and would anyone recommend that? (I'm no expert in this area) I emailed LRI with no response yet. Gre-tan's webpage says they're not accepting work currently.
Thanks in advance...

Looks like a candidate for an M-16 extractor conversion. Many do it. Try @boltfluter or @carlsbad

This is the usual course of action for adding a new extractor. It's a common repair suggestion for getting rid of the Remington extractor and replacing it with a Sako or M16 style extractor. Many major suppliers carry aftermarket M16 style extractors. Shop for the best price or simply ship the bolt off to a gunsmith for this process. You might find a local gunsmith with this capability.

Boltfluter, Mike Bryant or Carlsbad are my first choice.
