I guess it's like today's society, perception of right and wrong and the belief that blemington is the best. Tikka/Element seems to be the next option or the Evolution chassis with receiver mod to the FN.
OP, I would do the Element, much lighter, cleaner and fitting of this rifle. It's just the pack rat in me, but keep the original stock and mag in case you ever want to switch it back. How's the bolt feel, trigger, etc?
