Read a lot of posts on this site, very helpful group. Apparently I can’t handle a lot of comb drop on my long guns. I got fitted for my shotguns couple years ago. I am finding the same fit issue in rifles.
In the market for a new deer rifle and have done a good bit of research on various brands. I haven’t seen stock measurements on most rifle websites like I found with shotguns. Of the ones I have tried locally, they don’t fit me well where I can have a good cheek mount and see in the scope.
I have a short list of rifles that come with an adjustable cheek comb, most are heavy or more tactical/competigive models. My other option is to buy a new gun then modify or replace the stock with a riser. Id rather not try to do it with a pad.
Ones I found with adjustable cheek that have other specs I like-
In budget:
Savage 110 Timberline and Ultralite
Bergara HMR Carbon Wilderness (heavier than I want) & Wilderness Sierra (coming soon but like specs)
CA Evoke (coming soon and heavier than I want)
More than I was planning to spend:
Bergara Premier Divide
Sake 90 Adventure
Rifles I was leaning toward that aren’t adjustable: (whats cost of a new stock that’s adjustable or to add good riser?)
Tikka T3x Lite Roughtech
Bergara B14 Hunter
Open to suggestions from those been down this road or know more about this than I do. I do know I can go custom, and may sometime, but not for this one. Saving that for the long range big game one.
