It could be the Howa are very similar to the earlier Sakos like the A1.
The 85 is a three lug floorplan with a smooth one piece bolt. I have to admit I haven't had a close look at one in their XS 223 sized action. So this is a more general question about whether a calculated bot force in pounds really indicates safety and whether bolts in general are engineered to have a 30% margin to failure or 300%.
