[QUOTE="youngtrout, post: 1271289, member: 5373"] 4xforfun,,,, that's about the craziest thing I've read all day, way better ways to eliminate paralax, get good cheek position than reducing your field of vision by 50 percent....but hey they are your "results", but fairly a typical. To OP, I've been playing with kydex for cheek risers. Cut to shape, heated and draped over stock to cure. Super light weight, problem is attachment. Best and lightest is some aluminum inserts and screws, downside is its only for a specific scope height, and mod to stock,, Been thinking about a spacer and just one screw to hold it down,,, I also build my own stocks, can also do a separate cheekpiece, been using the loggerhead hardware, which is awsome, but I also want to get my hands on some suitable magnets to try too. With individual spacers As long as $ is not an issue go with edge fill. You can go with a heavier scope and rings, even weight the stock if it's too light. Hard to go the other way around. The fabric style cheek risers are good too. A good buddy uses them, I've shot his rifles. If nothing else they are very comfortable Super low tech, light and cheap is good old cut foam and tape. Works great but if you leave it on you have to take off scope to clean. Been thinking about this a bit using fabric and velcro [/QUOTE]
