[QUOTE="youngtrout, post: 781618, member: 5373"] Can't believe this was not brought up, but the big reason these things are adjustable and removable is so you can clean your rifle. IMO Most likely not the only reason most factory sticks have sporters, but think remington would get more complaints from guys who have to remove their stocks to clean, or use an otis type system. I have a fixed high cheek I made for my 260, but have to remove stock to clean, big reason I bought the fat wrench so I could torque back each time. The kydex type ones look the most simple for retro-fitting. A quick removable one could be made up by the guy with a bit of tooling, I drool over the mcmillans and manners, that are adjustable, but that a bigger leap than simply modifying factory. [/QUOTE]
