Help with chainring

I have what I believe to be an '88 Raleigh Technium Chill. I was wondering if I move the big chainring to the middle chainring spot, would I be able to go "big big" without issue, since it seems that isn't a good gear to try? I also realize there may be some alignment/ chain wear implications maybe? Also any info on this bike would be appreciated. I just bought it from a friend for $20. Shifts perfectly (friction) and brakes fine. There was a bolt coming loose from the inner chain ring (triple) and it caught on the chainstay, so what does he do? He kicks the pedal until the inner ring breaks, and still can't pedal it cause he doesn't have enough sense to screw in the bolt...So anywhoosit, he let me ride this before and I liked the feel of it, so I practically stole it from him to save it. It's my size too. So any ways thanks for any help.
