[QUOTE="Rflshootr, post: 1936167, member: 10284"] A Boyds At-One stock with an adjustable cheek piece and adjustable length of pull is $204 plus shipping. If you are going to fill the butt stock, you would probably be better off carving a piece of hardwood to fit with some clearance and then epoxy it in. The lesser mass of epoxy will keep shrinkage to a minimum. Tape some coarse sandpaper to a stick and scuff up the inside of the cavity. Then wipe out the cavity with acetone right before you do the epoxy. This gets any oils or release agent from manufacturing out. Then you can drill and install your cheek piece. You could even install aluminum bushings with tapped holes for the clamping screws. [/QUOTE]
