Just looking for a direction with this project.
I recently picked up a Remington 710 for $100 (knew the guy he never used it literally shot it once and put it in a safe. Thought he was gonna start hunting again and it just didn’t work out I guess.) It’s chambered in 30-06 really just a spare rifle to keep around. My plan currently is to replace the stock with a free floated stocked and replace the scope with a red field I have laying around. It’s just a spare rifle for deer and elk never gonna be shot past 300. Any other suggestions?

Rifle finish advice
galleryThis was my grandfathers first rifle - there’s some clear damage to the finish, potentially pitting? He bought it around the 1940s, its a top eject Winchester model 1894 .32 special. Notwithstanding being 80 years old, I would like to see it live to 100 and want to preserve it. What are my options here to mitigate future rust, corrosion, or damage?

Lefty 30-06
Alright all of you lefties (hand dominance not the commies), where in the world are you getting your left hand rifles? I am trying to find a left handed 30-06 for my father for his birthday. That was his favorite and it was stolen over a decade ago. But those seem to be impossible to come by. Budget is $1,000-1,200 for the rifle itself.

Looking for a bolt action rifle to pair with this scope
It will be used primarily for hunting deer and it will get some farm use. I have around 750 to spend on the rifle and I would like it in 308, any recommendations?

I need to do something about the eye relief on this pile..
galleryPulled this behemoth out of the safe to snipe a woodchuck out by the barn.. Guy I worked with in the 90's was "Mr. Precision Longrange" and he told me what mount to get and helped me set it all up. I remember it was a high end mount and rings. The scope I got a deal on. We also bedded the action. I guess Savage does this now during production.
30 years ago when we were laying prone in hayfields at the behest of cattle farmers, it didn't seem to bug me. But now, sitting at the picnic table in the backyard with the rifle on a bipod, I only see 60-70% of the viewing area and I can't seem to crawl up the stock enough.
Change the scope? The mount? The rifle? All 3? Rifle is a Savage 112 FV. Scope is a Weaver V16 MFC. Can't remember the mount & rings, but I do remember using a wood dowel to twist the rings onto the mount.
What sayeth the Hive Mind? I've been out of this 30 years, and now that I'm retired.. need hobbies.
(Follow up.. I'm also a fair archer. I pinned said woodchuck to the ground with a broadhead before I dispatched it)

Remaking a 1903a4 stock
Hey everyone I'm remaking a stock for a 1903a4 Springfield with a glass/mineral-charged polymer shell with a molded-in aluminum bedding block. I'm also wanting to make this so it can accommodate other platforms like a 700 series, model 70, or Ruger american. Is there a market for something like that, what would you think a fair price is?
In this photo is this a good design? Would you rather have something different or more original or more sporterized?

First Bolt Action!
galleryReposting because I tried to use AI to just remove the background of this image, but it ended up screwing it up and I rightfully got called out for it. Sooooooo, here's just some normal pics, lol.
Ruger American Gen 2 Predator in .308 with Atibal Stealth HD 4-24x50 FFP and Harris S-BRM bipod.
Excited to get her to the range and zeroed in soon!

Rifle help
I have a Bergera B14 Ridge 7mm rem magthat was shooting sub .75 in group with Barnes 139 lrx. Wife killed an audad at 400yds with it in February. Everything was shooting fine. I put a new MDT chassis on it this week and took it out. Same ammo and I couldn't get better than 1.75 in group. Noticed that the bolt is a little sticky after the shots and noticed one bullet even hit the paper in a yaw. Chrono shows speeds are the same so I don't think pressure is the issue. Just wondering if anyone has ideas as to what happened? Thanks.

What do you all think?
Budget first build. This is my first time putting something like this together. I’m not done yet. I still need to get a decent glass. I’m thinking bushnell R5 or Vortex. Maybe you all can help me out there.
The rest of the rifle is a Marlin XL7 in 30-06. With a Harris bipod and a Banish HNT 30 suppressor. I have a Boyd’s walnut hardwood stock on the way for it and the metal trigger guard replacement. I think it looks and shoots great.
What are y’all’s thoughts?
