Here's a pic of a Bartlein 2b in a Rem Magnum Sporter stock.

Best way to fit the 2b in, would be to have the smith cut about a half inch off the shank, and to blend the hard start of the angle at the end of the shank, making it more Remingtonesk. Minimal opening of the front of the forend is required as well.
