Gunsmithing Rem 700 action( bolt size)

[wkt60]

Before I head out to pick up an Rem 700 donor action for my .338 EDGE build could anyone tell me for sure if the Rem 700 Mag bolt face & the RUM bolt face & actions are the same.
I know the 7mm mag has a .532 rim & the 300 RUM has a .534 rim but assume they probably use the same bolt.

Thanks
