Do you use an adjustable cheekpiece on your rifle?

[QUOTE="apache sniper, post: 694873, member: 48168"] It's a simple design. The top of the base is adjustable and locks positively into the lower section of the base via ridging. I have hammered it with a 32 ounce framing hammer and a 3 # sledge.... the only thing that broke was the screw holding it to the mock up. The frw/rearwd movement is dovetailed so it can't move either. I built it to be rock steady and solid for long range use. Once your desired windage is dead center of your optical zero, you simply mark it top and bottom. It is repeatable and simple. Typically those are the designs that work anyway. So far max adjustment is 50 MOA or so either way Left or right. The prototype worked admirably. The improvement we are working on, is the MOA of adjustment minimums. We are trying for a 2.5 MOA per movement. Right now it's about 5.2 MOA per adjustment. It worked out for my 338 just about 1/2 MOA from dead on optical zero. We are custom building them for receivers that have a flat top or nearly flat, such as the O3 A3 the O3 A4 Springfield bolt , the remington 700 and so on so that we can build em without too many man hours in em. It keeps the cost down to where you and I can afford em IE $40 to $60.
