Skeet and Larry

Plan "B" was the answer. Drilled heads off each screw,popped off quarter rib,center drilled
all screws,and removed each with easy-out.
Now will re-chamber to 25 Gibbs,probably finish with Duracoat,and stock with Myrtlewood.

Thanks for the help.I owe you both a brew.

If you plan on using that rib again, remove a some material from the rear portion of the rib to make sure that it cannot touch the receiver. As the barrel heats up and expands slightly, the rib may make contact witht he receiver and that is not good for accuracy.
