I didn't want to trim anything at the butt, I just wanted to take 1/2" at the comb and taper it to nothing. The problem is when I do that the comb angles down toward the receiver and looked very "odd" to me. I will do a mock up with the comb trimmed as such and post it as well.

I should probably just bite the bullet and get it bent first, and then shave what needs to be removed afterwards. I have to see what it costs to get the mechanicals back in order before I can figure how much I want to sink into stock alterations.
