Hi ! i'm planning to build bolt head for enfield No.4: i'm not alone. Two friends of mine are metallurgical engeneers and machinist so we could try... Now i need some data:

-- the threads on bolt heads..what is it?
-- What iron should we use . i red somewhere that bolt heads were manufactured using grade "5" iron. Could we use "6" or "7" ?
