Average Joe Rifle Picture thread

This was given to me a family member recently. It was a Norwegian 6.5x55 krag, I was told it had a new barrel and new trigger and peep sight. I still have not taken it out yet but I am really looking forward to it. I just need to figure out what I am going to do about the stock being made for right since I shoot with the devils hands. Any suggestions?

Rem 700 BDL in 30-06 from 1971. I shot my first deer with this rifle in 1995 and it has been handed down to me to be mine now. Stripped and cleaned it. It was very gunky, but lots better. Trigger and bolt operate like new. Going to leave it as “average joe” as it is. Red field 3-9x scope, 5lb stock trigger. No pillars or bedding at this time. Probably won’t need it to be a 200 yard hunting rifle.

Stole the Sig Romeo 5 off the Spanish Mauser, and put it on the Lee Enfield. A red dot equipped defensive gun needs to be fast, and have 10 rounds. The Mauser will get the scout scope. I'm much happier now. The Enfield is a quick, smooth shooter.

It's like a bolt action SOCOM 16.
