Will a 458 socom bolt work the 6.5 Grendel?

no -
Boltface recess is bigger for 458, so Grendel case head would be sloppy fit in there and reliability would be anybody's guess.
No, won't work.:: 6.5 GRENDEL Deer and Targets :: 6mmARC Targets and Varmints and Deer :: 22 ARC Varmints and Targets

For $88, you get a Bolt, Carrier and gas key, with the proper .136" bolt face.If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?Comment

At $10 cheaper I’d grab the Toolcraft all day.
Not running BCA down, they make good stuff, but Toolcraft BCGs are hands down the best for the money.Comment

I have one of their side charging upper assemblies, in 5.56. The bolt and modified carrier both look very good. I see no blemishes, or sloppy tooling marks. I have no issues with these bolts or carriers, so I wouldn’t hesitate one minute ( other people’s experiences not withstanding.) My Grendel bolts fit quite well into this carrier, so I am contemplating building another Grendel as a side charger and keeping the 5.56 bolt as a spare.If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?Comment
