If your barrel(s) are low recoiling cartridge users, you can shorten the stock an inch or so to compensate for eye relief.
It's the other direction. The scope needs to be pushed forward or the stock lengthened.
With a TC carbine, I usually had the butt 2-4 inches off my shoulder so I could see through the scope. BAD habit to get into, "could" hurt going from a carbine length .32 H&R mag barrel to something like a lever action .45-70 with a crescent steel buttplate. Oh, you might think it is funny to WATCH the results but you don't want to experience them. At all. Ever. Don't ask how I know.
