[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 204073, member: 8"] The thumbhole does not have an adjustable cheek piece and cannot be higher than the bottom of the bolt or else you cannot remove the bolt. Here you see three rifles. The A5 with a 56 mm objective NF and adjustable cheek piece, a 40X with 56 mm NF and a Shawn Carlock cheek piece and the Joel Russo thumbhole with a 50mm Lueppy V3. I imagine you could do something such as add an Eagle stock pack or a Shawn Carlock cheekpiece to the thumbhole but I haven't as the rifle is only a 240Wby and the killing range is only about 1400 yards. I dearly love the thumbhole and it is my favorite stock, but if I was going to shoot further than 1400 yards I would definitely do something to help the cheek weld [IMG]http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n168/bufflerbob/P1010010.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n168/bufflerbob/DE1.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n168/bufflerbob/240w7.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
