Just curious what's involved in getting the action trued? I've done a bit of shadetree gunsmithing over the years and used to be a professional metalsmith. If it' doesn't involve a mill I may have the ability to do the work myself.
You are money ahead to just shoot it and enjoy the rifle for what it is. Im not expert but last I heard a floating bolt head solves most issues.
