I don't have a 61 around here but if I remember correctly the barrel is a lot smaller diameter than the receiver and there is a step-down. Have you considered a quarter rib? That might look good with a man-sized stock.

I went through my files and do not have any pictures of custom 61's. I do have one of a Shelhamer Remington 12, it belongs to a member here so maybe he can post it.
