1.I need the name of a gun smith that can drill and tap the action of a 1903A3. 2. What would be a good scope for this rifle? 3. I will be using a 150 gr bullet. Thanks for your answer, Hank45
To properly convert an M1903, you not only have to drill and tap the receiver, you must also alter the safety and bolt handle to clear the ocular end of the scope.
Essentially, you are taking an $800 rifle, and paying $300 to have it converted into a $300 rifle.
If you must have a sporter and can't afford one, sell your M1903 and buy a Savage with the money.

wow, used savages are under $100 now?You can find a used Savage for well under the price you'll pay to get the scope mounted

I need to add some clarification to my statement. $100 for mounting the scope and over $100 hit you'll take selling the altered military rifle. Excellent used Savages are $200
