I don't know of any factory rifles with this size bolt face. A mini Mauser in 7.62X39 might work, but the face is a little big.

PTG used to make a bolt head for Savage rifles in this size.

Easiest way is to open up a .223. I have done it on AR-15 bolts.

I checked the PTG site. They still offer the Savage bolt head in 6.8 SPC. I thought that they discontinued it.

DPCD pretty much covers the other viable option.

A guy on another site is selling a complete M700 6.8 SPC for $775. No idea if he would ship. I see them sometimes on the auction sites too.
