If you don't reload, you could have the barrel set back and chamber cleaned up. This is not as easy as on a Mauser or modern Rem 700. Metric threads, coned breech and extractor cut are a few of the hurdles.
The other option is to re chamber it to 6.5x57 or 6.5 Roberts. Mine was done in 6.5 Roberts and shoots wonderfully. Other options are 6.5x55 or 260. More work, but another option is 6.5 Rem mag.
