What bolt face do I need (tikka) and mag for a 6arc? Anyone know off the top of their heads?

Ppc, not offered. Have to modify a 223 by opening on a mill, or bushing a 473 bolt. 223 would be the more desirable method in my opinion. Company out of Canada that does 223 ppc 473 535 Tikka bolts, but I don't know on importing.

You can get a 223 bolt opened up, or get a 308 etc bolt bushed. Standard 308 mags work.

PPC bolt head as had already been mentioned. I used standard M mags with good results. Kinport Peak Rifles can open up your 223 bolt no problem.

The bolt face issue alone would make me continue with 6CM in a Tikka. The 6ARC sounds great but having to rebarrel AND get bolt work done to get LESS performance seems a little wonky.

But, if you have a 223 bolt, open it up!

Tikka T3 Bolt Body — PRPrecision - tikka bottom metal

Couple Tikka’s single action length with the increase in pre-fit and factory take-off barrels on the market today, aftermarket bolt bodies have been the final missing link to full, switch barrel capability on the Tikka platform. My T3 bolt bodies are CNC machined from 4340 and Nitrided for excellen

$350, idk if CAD or USD. But be pretty simple to strip the guts out your existing bolt and install onto this unit. I'd acquire this prior to barrel fitment to avoid any headspace issues.

I’d be interested in a stainless .223 barrel takeoff. Just trying to help w your planning.
