Hollis Cape Gun -303 X 12Ga " I need some advise "

Well I got my Hollis Cape Gun ,Top lever hammerless in 303 x 12Ga , I was hoping to make a set of 577 Light Nitro barrels for it as I thought it would be made on a double rifle action ?
Ok as it turn out the stock is badly broken ,also broke triger plate (badly repaired) the rifle side has a bushed firing pin , the 303 barrel is VERY worn ( bullets tumble ) I was hoping to see if the two barrels shot to the same sight setting -regulated -the 12Ga barrel shoots into a ragged whole at 25 yards , it,s a real cool gun ,well almost .
Now I was thinking of having the 303 barrel rebored to 9.3X74 or 375 Flanged , the barrels are heavy enough I think , what would most of you do out there ,remember it,s a English gun !
Any idea on cost of rebore and who might do it ?

Oh and any idea on stock work to keep the cost down ?

Thanks in advance !
