It's your rifle and you can do what you want, but ask yourself why you are doing this. If it's for the fun of the project, well then it's your property and you can do what you want. But when you are done with this project, after the bent bolt handle, scope and other do-dads, you'll have sunk several hundred dollars into an outdated platform with, (in the opinion of some) an inferior cartridge, that will always be a compromise. If you need or want a hunting rifle, buy a hunting rifle. Hard-core collectors of Mosin Nagants see no value in a modified rifle and prefer the original, dings and all.
