Maybe for bolt removal clearance?

My comment was based upon the original rendering not the mark up. The curve i'm talking about opposes the negative slope and creates less bolt clearance.

I think if the comb is as high as @Bluumoon's markup, dudes who get the lowest rings possible might not like how high the comb is. No skin off my back but most hunters still default to mounting a scope as low as possible.

I had a Rokstok for a short time. I know plenty of guys here love them, but I could not warm up to the exaggerated comb height and slope. Just felt awkward. Trust me, I wanted to love it after ordering it & waiting for longer than the quoted lead time.

What does the Master Sporter stock weigh? I've seen estimates of 42-48 ounces? Is that accurate?

I think my Walnut one is 54oz? The butt pad assembly is heavy, cheek riser hardware adds a little weight as well

I did a solid walnut copy of the McMillan MTLR last fall. It weighed 37.9oz with the butt pad.
Similar length and ergos to what is being discussed here.
With the stock hollowed out, I think ~35ish oz is reasonable.

I find myself preferring higher cheek rests to get a repeatable sight picture and not get neck pain when shooting a bit. I'd guess I'd want more than 3/16" overbore (everyone is different and easier to add), I'll try to measure where I'm at on a couple different stocks.

But do you mount you scopes low as well?

Yes either low or medium rings (no preference ) in conjunction with the RS and Bravo. The MS stocks also get low rings, but they have a rail. Attached is MS setup for me.

This one was previously too aggressive over bore at cheek contact and I had to lower it.

We are at 1/4” above bore centerline on the current config.
