Default it wont run!!!!!!!!!

i cant get my dads savage 25 to run right again. it wasnt running to its full potential so i ended up resetting all the needles to factory, but now it wont stay running. i started leaning it out but it still doesnt do the trick. when i do manage to get it to run it wont run long. i give it gas, it lags and randomly the rpms go up! i know its not interference, but its something with the motor and i dont know what to play with first. any1 have any suggestions? i really want to get it running. (i was having problems with the half tank lean.....thats why i reset them and i was going to run the first half then tune the 2nd half but it wont stay running long enough!!!!)

Mid-range needle = LSN (Low Speed Needle)
