Thank you all. In comparing it again I do not think it's too far off. What do you folks think?

Blending the wood a little, rounding that edge and doing what is needed to get that top 'tongue' to fit into the stock in a flush way should not be an issue. Since as Bindi says, it ought to be proud of the brass anyway. (I only just learned the meaning of that Australianicon expression very recently. )

Looks within spec? I am still trying decide if I want to switch to the Long buttstock.
