Just shoot that rifle, and don't ever leave it alone in the safe that long again!:cool:
If you want to Re-barrel, you don't have to stay long. My former 25-06 is currently a Creed-moor. However if you do want to stay long action, don't build a Swede. If you are on a budget, be practical build a 6.5-06. You can find 30-06 cases under the couch cushions for heaven sakes.
