Bolt face size question

[onlybrowning]

Thinking about grabbing a Tikka T3X in 350 Legend to use as a donor. Will the bolt that comes in the 350 Legend bolt face (and bolt stop) work with “regular size” chamberings, such as .243 win., .308 win, etc.?

No.

Those cartridges you listed used a “standard” .470 bolt face, while the .350 legend uses a .378 bolt face.

.378 bolt face is the same as .223, 300 blk, 204 tiger, etc.
