By changing the extractor? Is there a better bolt to start with. Is there an easier route?

I would bet your answer resides on their webpages.
There's an extractor mention, I believe on the site posted, for use with the PPC head size cases, which the 7.62x39 is. Now to give you a partial answer I recently built a 110 in a secret special caliber and it's head size it about that 7.62x39 and the bolt was for the 308 family size and the extraction is so so.

NO NO rufracer, StarMetal's is the lesser knowen secret "SPECIAL" cal. Easy to
get confused on this series of cal's.
Sharp Shooter Supply makes both a PPC bolt head and a PPC extractor for the Savage 10/100 series guns which should solve extraction issues. The case will definately have feeding issues but a "benchrest follower" will solve that. Ejection is also a problematic issue.
