Well I started the process for a 257Wby today. Tomorrow the smith is gonna order a #3 3groove 1:10 Lilja. Action/bolt will be trued and lapped, and threads re-cut (ss M70 Classic). I've got a McMillan off of an old Winlight with a blind magazine, call it a classic-ish. I'll have the scope base screws opened up to 8x40. Trigger will be tuned, it's acceptable already 2.5#ish. It'll get bedded of course. It'll get a new mag box and hex-head action screws. I've got a 4.5-14 W/M-1 elevation turret to bolt on.
This is my 1st rifle build/rebarrel so, what else?
