I made one for myself. I stated with a Greek 1903 action but made a new barrel,(1-8" twist) stock, bolt handle, trigger guard, butt plate and escutcheons. I used a commercial grip cap, front sight and an original rear sight but had to make the sight bases and the barrel band.
I wanted a classic 1910 to 1920 era style rifle, so no scope for this one. First blood with it was an antelope buck last season. With only irons I can't tell how accurate it really is, and I have old eyes now, but I can say that anything I can see out to about 300 yards I can hit, if I shoot from prone.
