If it were mine and I had paid less than $1,500 for it, I would send it to a competent gunsmith and have the stock, forend de-oiled and refinished including re-cutting the checkering on stock and forend. I'd leave the metal alone. I'd shoot loads around 1150 fps in it and enjoy the heck out of it.
Just my opinion.
