So some how I pulled a dumb move and lost the bolt to My t3 sporter .308. Short story is I moved and somehow misplaced it. So my first question is where can I find a replacement bolt assembly in Canada. I'll try the EE first and see if I have any luck on there. Google doesn't seem to turn up any forsale in Canada. Second question is I have a t3 Hunter 30-06 I'm wondering if I can use the bolt out of that for a short term solution until I can find as replacement. Is there going to be any headspace issues or something else I'm missing. I just want to make sure it is safe to use before I go and throw the 30-06 bolt into the 308. Thanks
 
You can use your 30-06 bolt in the 308 IF it headspaces correctly.

Just find a set of headspace gages and check it out. If it works you may never buy another bolt. You can only shoot one at a time anyway.

Years ago I bought a 700 in 30-06 without a bolt and the bolt from a 700 in 25-06 I also owned headspaced so I used it.
