Hello out there,
I was wondering how hard it will to rebuild 6.5 X 55 Swed. To give a little history, this is one of the first rifles that I shot, and it is a nice flat shooter. I talked to the person that bought it from my father and he said he would sell it back to me, but it has been sitting in a closet and has a pretty advanced case of surface rust going on. I want to have it cleaned up and reblued so I was wondering how hard a task it would be to do. Also, I planned to take the stock off of it when I clean it up and I was considering putting a modern synthetic stock on it to fit my bipod. I was wondering where I could get hold of a stock for it, and other minor parts if necessary
