cheek riser please advise.

[CarbonMTN]

On my savage FV-SR my face is almost an 1 inch and 1/4 to low to line up with the sights. I did search the forums to learn about the 2 risers that I'm looking into but I want more info on both products.

What would you choose and why?

Tactica ops Ammo cheek pad

OR

Karsten cheek riser

<span style="color: #FF0000">F.Y.I. - I like that the factory stock comes to a nice taper point. It does fit me nice, just not high enough. By getting a cheek riser can I retain that nice taper or will it be really wide to where I can lay my whole head down on it (width wise)?</span>

I like my karsten and will end up getting another for my centerfire. Loks in tight and doesnt budge.

How often are you replacing it? does it move or flex much?

I don't think it will fit well. I don't like stickers. I want something almost permanent with straps or drilling it.

Similar to the Tactical Operations pack but a much better product in my opinion. Karsten's Cheek rest is nice too, but I like the removable packs much more. Triad is a 'Hide vendor and a very good company.

Get stockdoc to do it. It will be better than factory.

Install was easy. Plus its made in the USA !
