Piston Rings

After 46,000 miles I think I'm looking at a set of rings soon. After doing regular back to back 300 mile days my oil level goes down to half way between min/max on the dipstick daily. I check it and top it up every morning.
My question is, how little parts do I need ? Can I get away with just the rings and a head gasket or do other smaller gaskets regularly tear when removing? Can the head bolts be reused or are they stretch bolts? Would it be easier to get a whole head set and do the lot?
Cheers Gang
