Yes, start with that one. Replace those see thru rings and boom your done.I could start with this one. That would be pure blasphemy though! This is like new and over 40 years old. Less than 100 rounds View attachment 5168137
Already looked at those today. Saw some nice Leopold rings that aren't see through for a more classic look. I haven't changed it yet because those are what my father put on there. I hardly ever shoot it. It's a freaking pile driver on recoil. I would like to get a decent recoil pad. A nice fit job that looks factory. I am getting to old to shoot a freaking jack hammer.Yes, start with that one. Replace those see thru rings and boom your done.
I get. I won’t change things handed down from my dad either. Unless it is to preserve it. Congrats on having that heirloom.Already looked at those today.

That's pretty tight!I bought a Ruger American Predator in 6.5 creedmoor off a guy who had put it in a Bell and Carlson stock and added a timney trigger. All together he paid roughly a grand for it, I paid $750. $1000 will buy you a Bergara B-14 HMR 6.5 Creedmoor, I’d go that route. If you just want a rifle to upgrade and tinker with I will say the Ruger Americans have great barrels. I get good groups out of mine, it’s a hunting rifle though. First picture is checking zero at 100yds before deer season, second is confirming it, then it goes hunting. I’m sure if I took my time to get the barrel to the same temp and practiced bench shooting more it’d do better but I don’t because where I hunt 150yd shot is rare. I have no trouble taking any shot I want when I have the opportunity on a deer.
