Robert, I’ve got a bottle of Crown, a TIG welder and some needle nose vise-grips if you want to start resetting bolt handles...oh wait, Dan at accu-TIG is still a 2 day turn...never mind Custom actions are too cheap to not use. By the time you make one over ALL the way you’ll have sunk a pretty penny (including bolt body and firing pin and spring upgrade) plus timing the handle unless you go with a one piece bolt Then you’ll need to machine the raceways as well. I don’t mind giving a Remington a makeover (or at least as much as you can give one) but, IMHOP, it’s still a Remington action. If it doesn’t hold sentimental value, leave it alone and buy a custom action if at all possible. Do you’ve to do all that? No, but if I guess it all depends on how close you want a Remington to be to a custom action.
