Savage Striker Bolt Head Change
Anybody know if the Hornet rim will work in a Savage 223 Bolt head? I know the case rim is just a bit smaller than 223. Also can I even change out my Magnum bolt head with the 223 bolt head?

Striker
To the first question: No
Proper bolt head should be available from PT&G Not sure about changing from .223 to a magnum bolt head, but I think it would work. You really want to chamber a magnum cartridge in a Striker? |

Got a bolt head that I had modified for a "Hornet" project that never went anywhere. And, bolt heads can be swapped real easy. Interested?? PM, Mike.

No problem with the Striker action, just a rifle action with a different stock, trigger, and barrel. Have any for sale? Tom.

I don't want to hi jack Steves thread on the bolt head, but. A few days ago I purchased my first Striker (suckered myself into it because of the dirt cheap price on one that never got used. Yep I know they are notorious for their triggers, I've read everything I can dig up on the net and forums about trigger adjustment. For the life of me I can't get this thing below 3# including friction proofing oils and tw25 on anything that moves. My next step is to try a new wire for the trigger but I haven't been into town yet to get some wire. This one is a first gen manufactured in 1998 according to the s/n. Have any of you Striker experts here discovered any tips, pointers or secrets you might be willing to share with an old guy that can't shoot a 3# trigger. Thanks guys.
