Upgrade to Boyd's Tacticool stock?

[Frapiscide]

I currently have a Savage Mark II and a scope mounted to it. The glaring problem with it is that the comb is very low on the rifle, since it was originally designed to be shot with iron sights. What ends up happening is that I have more a chin-weld more than a cheek weld. Would it be worth the $90 plus the DIP bottom metal and shipping to get the stock? Would there be any difference in accuracy? Right now, the rifle outshoots me. I can tell when it is and isn't my fault for a bad shot.

Alternatively, would it just be easier to get a Kydex cheek riser and rill the appropriate holes?

Depending on what you are trying to do, I'm much happier with the Boyd's Thumbhole stock than I am the Tacticool. It doesn't look as 'cool' but the fit and finish and quality of the material is superior. It will correct the cheek weld issue you are having as good as the tacticool.

The horrendous chin weld that I had with my FV stock was the reason I decided to wait no longer and order a Tacticool.

You can either buy the DIP metal as many guys do or simply buy the OE wooden-stock parts and bed it like I did.

Just ordered the Tacticool stock along with the DIP bottom metal and silver trigger guard. I'll just Krylon it black.

use Brownell's Aluma-Hyde II... or a bake on finish in a spray can on the trigger guard, not as good as Ceracoat or Dura... but way cheaper too

I wish they would make one specifically for a CZ453

The 452 stock won't work?
