tony Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 For those of you that have the A5 stock without the adjustable cheak piece. Do you find the stock high enough for your needs or do you wish that you had originally ordered it with an adjustable piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is adjustable and I know for sure I could not do without that feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duff eyed doyle Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Recently bought a second hand rifle with a fixed cheek piece McMillan A5, personally I find it too low and I am looking at having an adjustable cheek piece fitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a fixed stock if you get it done could you post a pick so I could have a look, as I would be intrested also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejg223 Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 In the last year we put a bit of work in designing a tactical stock. The A5 is certainly not high enough without adjustable cheek. We don't even offer our stock without adjustable cheek. edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the adjustable cheek-piece on my A5 but never bothered to use it - probably because it's the only one of my rifles with an adjustable cheek-piece.

Scotch_egg Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Vince, I assume that you don't use the cheek piece as you are a target shooter? A cheek weld pressure can influence the ride of a rifle on bags. I attended a fly shoot a couple of years ago to see some TRG users shooting with the cheek piece removed free recoil. I must say the "free recoil" technique made me wince.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely - if you shoot off-hand then a good cheek-weld is essential but my A5 tactical rifle is always shot off a bi-pod with the butt usually resting on my clenched fist.

Depends on ur face I guess Cheers Andy I must have a baby-face as mine has to be almost fully extended for me to get a good sight-picture in the scopes (Mostly 5-25x56 S&B PM11s with rings set to just clear the barrel!!! If I don't have a decent cheek-weld I wander all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
