Lots of good suggestions. Also suggest doing some serious gunshop prowling. Lots of nice customs have been done over past 70yrs, owners pass on, they end up there, need a home. Unlike online, you can check fit, function, condition at your leisure.
I found two weeks ago an old Paul Jaeger custom ‘06, “near new” on a sako action, nice clean stock, with a leup compact 6x for 1k. It’d been in the rack for shy of a year and i couldn’t stand it any longer.
Lots out there, ready to run.
