Ideas for a single Shot Bolt Action Rifle

I once had a Interarms Mark x single shot action... a true solid bottom action, that I sold as an idiot.

Firstly, find a competent gunsmith.. maybe he could fix it or make it feed another cartridge without much problems?

Second... weld an solid bottom or get a single shot follower in the mag. Get a true old classic cartridge.. maybe 300 H&H and make it into a old style competition rifle and use it for Varmints or long range hunting.
 
Thanks for all of the suggestions and as much as I hate to ignore a CP Donnelly barrel, the rifle is pretty much destined to sit in the back of the cabinet. It's place has been taken by a 300 H&H Win 70 that I obtained from a poster on this site.

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
