Yeah, an adjustable setup is available, but shouldn't be needed. It wasn't the front half of the HTG that folks had problems with. A higher fixed comb would have yielded a winner. Now with even more aplomb

They changed the wrong end. A1-3 has a higher comb than the HTG. Drop on A1-3 is 5/16". Drop on HTG is 5/8". My A1-3's comb height is perfect for me with a pic rail and standard Badger rings. It's high enough that McMillan cuts a channel on top of the comb for bolt removal. Sent from my Dingleberry Handheld Wireless

The adjustable cheek adds too much weight for a hunting rifle. Sent from my Dingleberry Handheld Wireless

The one on the A1-3 is ergonomically worse than a brick. Originally Posted by RED53 Some shooting knowledge: Don't stand in front of the muzzle.

McMillan is offering a new molded-in finish called the Spectre pattern in different color schemes. The finish mimics digital camouflage.

Guess they've finally added it to their catalog. It's a good general purpose stock and I like forend being a bit wider than the HTG.
