I think the 'smithing would be the most expensive part

I reckon that's an accurate statement!

Just a couple of teeny weeny jobs like straightening the bottom-metal and bolt-handle for starters, then opening up the bolt-face, rebuilding the mag box, lengthening the opening and grinding out the action rails so it feeds reliably under any circumstances......

Having said that, I like the P-14 action and have one stashed away for a rainy day myself. The whole A-Square phenomenon proves the worth of these actions for the big rimless cases, and plenty were worked up by H&H, Jeffery etc when the Magnum Mausers became unavailable.
