    Since I know zero about the Ross I have two questions. How do you remove the bolt? More importantly does anyone have any bedding tips for the Ross?
    How's the bore and rifling?

    Lot's of things you could with that action; it has the desirable large diameter barrel with square threads so can be easily rebarreled. The Harris magazine platform is a neat feature I would keep. The old stock will give you a nice example of the inletting for the next one.

    More money in the parts and action than in that rearsight IMHO, considering the shape it's in.

    Much changes, much remains the same.
