Making a rifle "pretty"

[KMart]

I got a pierce single shot action real cheap, and was going to build a pretty rifle, so I was hoping for a bit of experience in if anyone has done a similar project?
I was thinking of gold Ti-nitriding the bolt, strippng the action and giving it a polish and then some engraving (that's the easy bit for me), and then colour case harden the action...
I have a brux barrel, jewel trigger, and a nice piece of walnut ready to go...

I know it won't shoot any better, but maybe I will!

All that make up and bling will make it "pretty". Tiny tight groups will make it beautiful.

How much would something like butch’s action there cost to engrave and how long to do it?

If you have to ask. Probably too much. Although I'd be curious myself.
