The problem with restocking these is the (in-)availability of bottom metal. Rod Rogers from Serengeti (see link above), is the only one I know of, who has had bottom metal (magazine etc) built for TRGs. Rod sold some of his bottom metals to McMillan, but I don't know if they still have any??

I had one in 375 H&H. It shot great groups. Very easy to shoot, and malfunctioned on a Buffalo. The magazine is only cliped in at the front of the mag. Under the recoil the back end of the mag will tip down and out. When you bolt the action you then miss picking up the next round in the mag. Results in a loud CLICK! on Buffalo. I had shot the buff twice before this happened and he was getting up a second time. I knew what had happened as it happend two days before on a zebra. After my slapping the mag back in and bolting the action I was a bit excited and it felt like I didn't pick up a round. I did a press check, but due to the push feed and I pulling the bolt back too far caused the round to kick to the right. After seeing the round I tried to close the bolt, but the round was now pushing against the chamber and I had to now clear the fail to feed. My PH then shot the buff with his 416. I got he gun cleared and shot it twice more.
I sold the gun as soon as I got home and bought a Winchester M70 and have a Searcy double on order. BTW Beretta's service sucks
I wouldn't waste my money trying to re- stock it.
