Yep! I've been known to do things like that.

Rich,
For hunter class you need provision for a ram rod, that doesn't mean an underrib. If you have a ram rod channel and a ram rod pipe, that works. I have a number of originals with no underrib.

I have thought about that I think that an under rib doesn't do any thing for accuracy especially with a lighter barrel. This stock is drilled for a ramrod hole so that could be a easy quick fix and if the Hunter class takes off I may just do that. I have seen a few pictures of originals made that way kind of ugly but I guess it would be legal.

Morning, Richard
Just a thought, if you drilled and tapped bottom of that barrel to put a ramrod pipe out towards the muzzle it wouldn't be overly intrusive. Since it's already got the accommodations for a ramrod in the stock, it would then be legal I don't think it makes an ugly , but that's just a matter of opinion. Besides, if they were put on the machine screws you can take it off when you were not wanting to use it .

Oh, and Mike's rifle above, I would not have a problem with it. I leave this to be decided by you who will be shooting these matches at the National level.
That is some nice looking rifle, mister!

Maverick,
Just wondering; will that 1" X 42" barrel make weight? 10# for hunter class, 13# for open class.

That 10# limit is good to keep in mind, Mark. Good to have the reminder.
