For target shooting and hunting the normal 9310 alloy bolts seem to work fine with PPC based cartridges. I just commented because a high rate of fire could cause reliability issues in a military weapon. 5.56 bolts break, the bolts with a larger recess are weaker and the cartridges create more bolt thrust so common sense says they should break sooner in the same type of condition.
