[QUOTE="winmag, post: 623526, member: 22166"] No idea how accurate it is for everyone, but I was once told that if you place the rifle vertically, with the butt stock in the crotch of your elbow/forearm joint, that the trigger should hit right at the first joint of your trigger finger. It has held true for me. I have a simmilar problem, but opposite appendages. I have super long monkey arms, & a long neck, combined with big palms, & stubble fat fingers, for a guy who's only 5'-10". (My "wingspan is 6'-3") guess I'm a freak:D but I'm the midget of my whole family. I've had to increase many stocks from the standard LOP, & move scopes quite a ways forward to be comfy when I cradle a rifle into my shooting positions. Try shouldering a Ruger 10/22 for comparison in LOP. They feel Soooo short, compared to many centerfire factory stocks. Maybe it'll give you an idea where to start anyway. Good luck [/QUOTE]
