That’s what I’m doing with my build/rebuild to a 110S. Picked up the rifle for under $300. Sold the barrel, sold the stock, sold the scope mount. So I have about a $135 into the action (left hand). Picked up a NOS left hand silhouette stock for $75. Doing action and barrel work right now.

Go back to the main forum page and go down to members build and you can look up the pictures.

Just got the receiver face trued today. It was out .006”.
