			Hello Critch, 
 
Yes , its easy to stiffen the stock the way your thinking, you'll have to do a bit grinding to make room for the flat stock. But it does stiffen it up. I did it to my Savage 112 22-250 when I bought it in the early 90's 
 
FWIW ...  Have you looked into buying a Duramaxx stock for it?  Depending on choice of color Black runs 80.00 on sale at midway 100.00 non sale.    They are really worth the small outlay I have them on my 22-250   25-06   .308 
 
Peace 
Talon
