One of my concerns is that I don't want to modify the rifle in any permanent way. The photo below is my solution.
The brass plate attaches to 2 screws that hold the action together. It wraps up and around the stock without actually touching. There are still a few swirl marks to polish out, but it is looking pretty good even so.
Above is the plate at the halfway point. It is a 1/4" backing plate to a commercial doorknob mount. I had to work around a few screw holes to get it to fit.
This shows the right hand side. The plate is a bit higher than I'd like. I'm sure a better craftsman could do a better job. Next step is a trip to the range for some testing.
