I can't take credit for this as I saw someone else here did the same thing. Basically, went to a 50mm obj and needed a taller comb so installed a kydex moveable cheek rest. But then I wasn't getting great position on my shoulder so I figured I'd duplicate what I saw here.
Bought a 1/8" and 1/4" lop spacer I found on Amazon. The 1/8 was far to thin to use but the 1/4 worked. It did lengthen the lop a 1/4 but it's barely noticeable, not even enough to have to move my scope back.
Simple; screwed the spacer to the stock, scribed a line, cut with a box cutter blade (it's fairly soft plastic), sanded and shaped. Did some aligning with the pad, drilled new holes, bored the backing to fit over the spacer screws, screwed it to the new plate, and done. About 30 mins of time and much better fit. Spacer was 10 bucks but I'd guess if you went to a hobby store you could find something that works even cheaper. I was pushed for time. I have the newer Airtech pad coming today and will install it later.
