There are issues with converting this rifle to 30-06. Primary one is you will not be able to fit 30-06 ammo in the magazine unless it is seated shorter than SAAMI spec. As suggested, you can get a short-chambered barrel and convert to 7X57, or any of the cartridges based on the 308 Winchester. A Boyds or other drop-in stock is a quick way to bring the appearance around. A Timney trigger is also a nice addition. Quick, easy, done. Price= about $400-$500.
