Clean it, put it in the safe or wherever if you don't like it, and are not going to use it.

If you are going to use it and want to spend money on it, a lighter stock and 2" off the barrel would be a start. Then maybe go to the 35 Whelen, which will lighten it up a bit more, and make for a better handling (though not necessarily better shooting) rifle.
