Stevens 044 1/2 in 22LR - refurbished

Selling my refurbished original Stevens 044 1/2, which is a lighter weight 44 1/2 made around 1904-1916.
I suffer from the family curse of essential tremor and have given up shooting anything off-hand, so BPCR of any flavor is out. 
Recent case color on the action.
Bartlein 5R rifled barrel, d&t'd on 7.3" center for an MVA or similar scope (Unertl, Lyman, etc.).
New wood, double-set triggers, etc.
My favorite thing about this 044 1/2 rifle is the ejector (quite rare in a Stevens action). It actually works quite well and tosses the case clear of the action. Very handy.
The rifle weighs 7# 14oz without the scope and with an MVA 10X scope it weighs 8# 15oz.
Will include a few spares (stirrup, hammer, etc.). The 044 1/2 takes the same internal parts as the 44 1/2.
My 044 1/2 is as accurate as any rifle I've owned and I won matches at Ridway & Kentucky with it before my shaking took over.
Like most good rifles, it shoots its best with Tenex or Midas+, etc.
I'll take $2500 for the rifle. 
Shipping would be at your expense to your FFL. I would ship the barrel & wood directly to you. Only the action would go to your FFL.
Please feel free to ask questions.

Here's a pic of the 44 1/2 (left), 044 1/2 (center) & 44 (right).

The 44 1/2 & 044 1/2 are identical other than the thinner/lighter receiver built to handle rimfire cartridges, only. The 44 is a considerably 'weaker' action where the block rotates on a large screw rather than being a falling block like the 44 1/2 & 044 1/2.

The English model 044 1/2's were made in both rimfire and centerfire. 
I own two centerfire 044 1/2's, one in .28-30 and one .25-20 ss.

Had essential tremor for years, it sucks. I don't plan on being able to shoot well but still enjoy shooting.
