Please forgive if this is an old conversation. Besides PT&G, who makes one-off bolts for actions? I have a Baity Talon centerfire action with bolt in standard rim size .308. Looking to possibly re-barrel to magnum chambering. Do not want to adulterate the existing bolt. thank you.

The problem with bolt manufacturing in today‘s world is anybody making bolts is machining them on CNC equipment.
To make a one off custom bolt would mean a new program and possibly tooling. The cost would be prohibitive.
I recently made a new bolt head for a Farley Action that had the lugs sheared off. All of the machining was performed manually. I can’t imagine doing it for some one else.

Thank you for the comments. I sent some photos to pt&g and am awaiting a response. Does anyone know if the talon action is compatible with other actions footprint wise?
