Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes you get it right in the seat. This is one of the latter. Bought a cheap Herters Mauser 300 win mag off GB, figured to use as a truck/beater gun. Action was fairly rough, but blueing was nice and pretty. Then once I took it apart, discovered the stock was cracked in 3-4 places. Time passes, I found another stock, bedded it, shot the rifle, it was pretty accurate, consistently 3/4 MOA with 180 accubonds.
Then, when cleaning the rifle, discovered the bolt body was cracked, right along the underside. The crack runs all the way through the body. Pics attached.
Any ideas of how to salvage *something* out of this? I basically have a barrel and a rough action.
