The dollar bill treatment will only lead to the stock warping and touching the barrel again. Sand it out to where you can slide 2 business cards betwen the stock and the barrel and then reseal it. Make sure you have it torqued down properly when you check it out as well and things should be fine.

Get yourself some stripper and save yourself some time. I use Zip Strip myself, but any good stripper should work. Remove the urethane and then sand the stock using a piece of pipe that almost fits the barrel channel and some good 80 grit paper. Once you get it sanded down, then rub the urethane back on the stock forearm a couple of times.
