Bolt for a 7.35 carcano

Can someone tell me if the bolt on a 6.5 carcano will fit a 7.35 carcano?

The 7.35X51mm is just a necked-up 6.5X51mm, so yes, it will work fine.

As Scorch said, the case heads are the same (the same clips will work with both cartridges as well). However, as with changing bolts on any rifle, you will need to check the headspace.
