She said there is lots of wood there if I want to open the barrel channel. Trouble is I don't know how to do that. I am thinking I would lay the barrel in the channel and go at it with emery cloth wrapped around the barrel with the grit facing the channel. I would draw the paper back and forth removing the wood in the channel. Is this how this is done?
Money is an issue, so please don't recommend an 800 dollar custom made stock.

I would use dowel or pipe that closely matches your barrel but you have the right idea yup
