You Will Shoot Your Eye Out

It is a Sporterized 1903 Springfield in caliber 7mm-08. That I won in an Auction from one of my Sponsors – Lock, Stock, Barrel & Investment. Frankly I was shocked that I won it as I had put in a very low bid.
But somehow I got lucky. Now all I have to do after finding a good Gun Smith that is. I just have to finish off the stock which is very rough right now.
Plus put a Tinmey trigger on it, so that I can at least hit the board side of the Pacific ocean. Followed by putting one of my surplus scopes laying around in my “shop” / garage on it. Then to top it off add a recoil pad as I have turned into a real wimp, When it comes to recoil.
So if any of you good folks have any ideas or comment to ad to this conversation about this rifle. Please feel free to jump in. Especially since I have no experience when it comes to the 7mm-08 round! Grumpy
