Just got my .22 cal B-21 today and...

You know you could file a claim with UPS if that's who shipped it and get reimbursed for the price of a new stock.
If it was damaged during shipment you should be able to get something.

Agreed. The B30 can definitely use the extra clamping force afforded by that 5th screw.

I want to round the forend of my B30 stock just like howie's. I don't like the squared off look of mine as it is. I thought about getting about 3" chopped off my B30 barrel.

The B 21 I currently have in 22 cal.  I cut the barrel to 12 inches and it is now only 9 lbs and is still very accurate,If you want ed a B30 in 22 cal since you can't get it anymore why not take a b21 and cut it down to the size of the B30 and re crown the barrel the difference in the cost of the rifle would pay for shipping to Mike if you wanted him to do the work, their is not too much difference between the 2 rifles other than the finish on ths steel instead of a shiny blued finish it is more of a dull finish, not bad just not shiny.
