I did pretty much the same thing to my 96/17hmr. When I removed the band (and smoothed the band notch), I sanded the whole thing down and refinished it blond. I like it. I also post bedded the barrel, cause mine drooped a bit.

I also sent it off to Todd at ttshooter,com for a trigger job. Now it's down to about 3 1/2 lbs instead of the 15 or so from the factory.
