I need something to raise the stock height just a little.

I changed my set up on scope and mount and now I'm just a tad low for a perfect view into the scope. I could change rings but would rather not go to a lower set.

I've seen some kind of adhesive pad to apply to stock but haven't found what I need just yet.

Any suggestions ?

Might look at these if you haven't already.

Some use mole skin. It has sticky side and you can build it up

Thanks Craigster and saddlesore both good ideas.

Will check it out.

We use god-a-grip on ours and it works fine on both rifles and shotguns

Moleskin with a cartridge carrier sleeve over top of it. Beartooth product sticks in my beard, but that's another approach.

Doesn't sound like much fun.

God-a-grip ?

Got a link ?

I found the link, thought you had misspelled it but it was exactly as you said.

Thanks

3M Vet Wrap (4"), wrapped around the stock works to build up the comb. If you need the cheek weld higher, a short piece of black foam pipe insulation slid down on top of the comb then vet wrapped works too.

Tell us about the stock itself.

Wood?
Plastic?
Laminated?

What are you working with?

This rifle was put together around 1980. Mdl 700, 7mag, re-chambered, new barrel in a composite stock.

I used it for elk for several years then just kind of moved away, started hunting with BP and a recurve.

This year I drew a limited draw rifle elk tag and want to take it along for backup.

With all the new powder and bullets available I thought it would be a good choice to un-retire.

I changed the scope setup and now I'm below the perfect line of sight, looking for a way to raise the cheek weld and use my old friend again.

OK Dennis, for many composite stocks you can make a cheek piece using epoxy and auto-story fiber-glass mesh. You lay it up just as you can when doing body work or boat hull work. Remove all the paint from the stock first. Lay up and shape you new cheek piece to you liking. When it's all done sand the stock to about 220 grit. Then paint it like a car.

In fact you can take such stocks to auto-body shops and they can paint them for you if you'd like. Mask off all the inletting first so they don't get a build up where you don't want it.

There is a shop not far from me that does this kind of thing. There is also a shop in Riverton Wyoming that does the "film dipping" and he does nice work on a stock like yours for about $100. I assume such work is available in Colorado too.

Of you can use a weapons grade spray like those available from Brownells. They sell a Dura-Coat paint in ca spray can that seems to work quite well. It's a 2 parts can and you have to poke a hole in one first so it mixes with the other before spraying. So far, what I have seen seems to be good.

szihn,

Thanks for the info.

Probably more work than I'd want to do but will keep in mind if I decide to make a permanent change.

Just wanted to give a thumbs up for a product that was just what I needed to improve the sight picture on my rifle.

God A Grip (godagrip.com) and the owner Michael Goddard for fast service and helpful info for my problem. A small company in Melbourne, FL that makes a great product along with outstanding customer service.

Thanks to coyote268 for pointing them out.
