Cheek Pad for Hunting Rifle

**Redhat** · 05-06-12, 19:20

I am in need of a cheek pad for my CZ 550 bolt rifle. The stock is a bit too low for me to get a tight cheek weld when my eye is aligned with the scope. I wind up lifting my cheek off the stock in order to see through my Leupold 3x9x40 scope.

I have looked at TACOPS and Eagle but they don't mention how much rise they add to the comb.

Any help appreciated.

Might sound a bit crude, but for the stocks I don't want to modify. I simply use a Triad stock pack with a piece of foam underneath. The pack adds 3/8" by itself.

Thanks,

That looks similar to the others I have been researching. I don't much care if it's crude as long as it is functional.

I run them on my hunting guns. Most need it. The Triad is good. Blackhawk makes one but it's "pleather". Feels a little funky but it's cheap and works.

Google shooters pack. Or just buy the Triad

Can you fit shorter rings?

The eagle does not add a whole lot, I needed just about a inch and got it with one. Plus with the way its made you can tighten it down and maybe adjust the height doing this. Also with the soft part against you cheek you can lower your head and still maintain a good weld.

Nope, the scope is as low as it can go.

I found a cheap solution at Bass Pro Shops. It's a neoprene band that you can stack multiple pre cut pieces of foam for just the right height. It's a cheaper alternative but works for me.
