Looking at the accu long range on the yellow sight or something similar along these lines. Not after a bag riser looking to keep it clean.
Cheers

Iv just got a bit of foam and silage tape. cheap and cheerful :yaeh am not durnk:
I use leather, cut to cheekpiece / monte carlo shape and glue it onto stock with Ados. Easy to remove at any time with a bit of white spirits. Does no damage and leaves no mark. Can use multiple layers if needed, and when polished with nugget are quite attractive.
Foam and duct tape on one rifle, and a 3d printed cheek riser on another.
I got a custom carbon fiber jobbie made for the Mcmillan Hunters Edge stock of my 338, works & looks mint
I also just installed a KalixTeknik adjustable unit on a T3X, had good instructions, mounting sticker, but was a messy prick of a thing, drill holes in the stock plastic everywhere but once it's in it's pretty good. Nice, clean & works well. Worth a look if using a synthetic stock.
I had a similar issue, when shooting prone, I couldn't get a decent cheek weld.
I thought about sponge rubber taped on, but cleanup of the sticky shit from the tape on the stock if I ever took it off put me off. So I got one of those slip on shell holders and slid a thinnish layer of foam under it to suit. Works great and if I take it off to sell or whatever, no damage to the stock finish.
I did a cheap DIY job using a bit of PVC pipe and a couple of furniture screws and knobs to suit.
Aliexpress. Only cost a few bob. There's plenty of variations to choose from including without a bag. Well made.

I was using cardboard and duck-tape on my rifle but I only use use it for shooting steel. Brought on of the units you are looking at on trade me it has double-sided tape but it needed a screw to secure it to the stock permanently so its that with duck-tape as I did not want to damage the stock.

I did have a velcro attached one that worked very well and had 5 cartridge holders and a little zip up pouch which was handy as well.

Used a length of grey pipe insulation foam tubing with a suitable wedge cut out for the top edge of the stock. Have tried different attachment methods, some not great for the varnish. Hot melt glue blobs not bad as peel off OK. The bare foam is very light, but especially if you have cheek stubble it's crackling in your ears.
Next time I'm going for the shell holder thingamebob suggested by @kidmac42, maybe still with piece of foam riding on the top edge of the stock.
Can you tell us about the carbon fiber jobby ?Quote:

These are the best ones I’ve found. Come with three different foam inserts and they also do a left handed model as well.

Did an awesome job, was only $200 just wish I'd got him to make it 5mm higher ( but that was my mistake ) but very happy
