I like your idea. I like the chambering. I like the walnut stock. An inexpensive option for a walnut stock is the semi-inletted walnut stock from Numrich. It can be had for about $40. It needs some file work, sanding, and a finish but I've seen a couple done on this forum that turned out so well I bought one myself and intend to finish this winter. The unfortunate part is finding a floorplate as it is called. Numrich has been out of them for as long as I've been searching Capt. Beach put a CDI bottom metal on his but that may make it heavier than you desire for a hunting rig. I plan to make a floor plate from aluminum. I'm not highly skilled at metal work but my business partner is quite handy with metal fabrication. Good luck with your build!
