buckslayer,
Yes that should do it......Just don't forget to run a dollar bill under the barrel between the forestock to be sure you're not causing any pressure points.  If you find that to be the case, you'll want to sand those spots down and reseal.

Now you have a rifle smelling of cocaine if you happen to run tinto a drug sniffing dog.
It is the duty of the good citizen to love his country and hate his gubmint.
