I AM BUILDING A TARGET RIFLE WHAT BOLT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND?

The bolt carrier really isn't going to have a profound impact on accuracy.  If it makes you feel better having a nice bolt carrier, look at the Young N/M.
ETA:  Reading is fundamental  As for the bolt, If you don't already have your barrel, get a properly headspaced bolt with your barrel.

Armalite.
They cut the lug opposite from the extractor.
It spreads the load between the other lugs more evenly.
I recently watched a 1.5 MOA rifle go sub-MOA with this change. YMMV
