    Didn't see a thread about these, but saw SAC post them. Price is reasonable, features are welcomed, might actually be a much easier upgrade path for the build i'm currently working on than losing my ass on my 5R barreled action and going custom. Price is 369$, does require fitting, but overall much cheaper than trying to bring a 700 up to speed with lots of mods.

    -.695" bolt body O.D. with a larger O.D. behind bolt lugs and in front of the bolt handle to keep the bolt smooth, but locking up straight.
    - Springless M16 style extractor. Same on GA Precision Tempest actions.
    -Threadless bolt shroud. Adjustable firing pin assembly.
    -5/16 x 24 threaded handle to use your own knob if desired.
    -Unique fluting.
    -NIB-X coating.

    Right?! I saw a design similar to this from LRI a while back (it looked exactly the same) and I'm so glad these are coming to market. They look like great replacement bolts.

    Thought I saw LRI offering some as well a while back but dunno what happened to them. Now that you say that they did look very similar, though i don't remember if the supplier was Mack Bros or rather they were proprietary from LRI.
