Congrats on a cool rifle- really it’s the only thing that matters is how much you enjoy it!

The A3 bolt handle verision I accurized for a customer was a hand me down from his grandfather, it was already half sporterized.

He had me fix the stock (cut a race in it for the curved bolt handle), and bed it.
I hooked him up with a nicer scope mount, and helped the rifles lock time a bit, then cleaned up (lapped) the bore to clean it up.
She really started running tight groups, he was super happy.

Then he shot his first deer with it at around 17 paces !! LOL.. You just have to love life !

Again - be as happy as you can with all and any rifles you have!

Cool rifle!
