Nope. Well, sort of nope. Gunparts' schematic shows what you and I would call a bolt head, but they call it the bolt. $40.35US each plus their export fee. Try Western Gun Parts first. They're in Canada.
Problem is that just putting in a new bolt doesn't guarantee that the new one will fix bad headspace.
You close to a smithy? Might be an idea to go to one if you're not already.
 
I have some stripped bolt heads for the 100. Parts are not readily available unless you find used. Without having someone competent check "headspace" you may be swapping parts for no reason. What makes you think you have a headspace issue?
 
our friendly gun smith checked and said it missfires because it has to much head space.
I have remedied this by sizing the cases to fit the chamber but I would like to fix it right.
PM me if you want to sell a stripped bolt head.
 
Just curious, might you be pushing the shoulder back when resizing?

push a primer in an empty chamber with your finger take it out razor blade across the primer and a feeler gauge .003 max.
 
The existing bolt face can be machined slightly deeper and a new face inserted and machined to the correct headspace.
