I need a Blaser R-8 right hand 500 Jeffery bolt head or bolt carrier and bolt head
As implied in title I am looking to help a friend switch a left hand 500 Jeffery to a right hand. I can source the bolt carrier elsewhere but the bolt head is the critical need. It needs to head to Africa with the hunter by June 1.

Gary, if I remember correctly, a RH bolthead will work on a LH rifle...it just ejects out the other side. Check with Blaser to be sure.

Thanks Jon!
We're trying to convert a left handed rifle to a right handed version, but maybe??? Will that left handed bolthead actually fit on a right handed Bolt housing?? I'll check with the boys in San Antonio!
Thanks Jon,
You're the best!
