I’ve seen 2 solutions for getting a bent bolt for my Mosin:
A no-weld fix:
Buy a completely new bolt:
What’s my best option with this?

That makes sense. I would imagine that snipers are less concerned with rate-of-fire.Yes, I was thinking of mounting a scope and that won’t work with the original T-bolt. The Russians themselves used a bent bolt for their Mosins with scopes.
Not saying that what you have is bad but the reason why the Soviets abandoned the cantilever mount was that under combat conditions theirs didn't hold zero. Hence they went to the side mount for their 4X PEM scope.View attachment 1171753 And he had modified cantilever scope mount and its professionally drilled and tapped to receiver.
