I'll make some changes, but a good bit of custom work has already been done.

That could make a nice looking rifle.

What caliber will you build it for?  Standard/off the shelf, or custom/wildcat?

Probably something like a 7x57 with a featherweight barrel.  21-22 long.

How dare you desecrate that historic action!  No more are being made!  It is a sacred part of history!

Bought it as shown.

I'm saving it!  

PS I actually bought three of them.

Maybe I'll do a build thread at some point, but this action won't see the light of day for months or years.

Large ring?

If so, why not build something huge on it - like a .458 Magnum?

Better yet a 416 Rigby.  Little cut here, and cut there and presto plenty of room!

The 33/40 is a lightened small ring action......think KAR-98 with metal removed.......

458 or 416 might be pushing it a bit.......
OP's plan for a 7x57 is perfect for that action....

One I have wanted to build on for quite some time.

I kept the nicest one, pictured in this thread.   Sold two other G.33/40's that I bought at the same time.

Just got another one from an online auction.   Have a bids on two more.   They seem to be coming out of the woodwork.
