Adjustable cheek piece

Sat Sep 19, 2015 2:09 pm

Any recommendations for anyone (preferably in the North East of England) who could fit an adjustable cheek piece to my S200?

I`d have a go at that job (for myself) if I felt the need, a google search on home made cheek risers, a wafer thin blade on a scroll saw, a polished rod & lock screw with collared seat would suffice IMO.
would buying the target stock for a 200 be an option maybe? a choice of stocks could help any future sale.

Doing it to your own stock is a damned site easier than doing it on someone elses for money :lol: Its just not worth the hassle for me,my kt isnt set up for it. Hving said that, I've seen some jobs that folk have paid good money for that I'd be ashamed to put my name to :shock: :?

I dont mind doing em new on a new stock by the way ;)

Unfortunately, the only S200 target stocks I've seen available are the two piece versions, mines the one piece Mk3.
If I had the skill & the confidence I'd have a go at doing it myself, trouble is I have neither. :oops:

I've seen hardware available from the U.S. but postage costs would put that out of the question. There are a few on ebay, I might consider buying the parts necessary & then looking for a local Carpenter/Woodworker/Furniture Maker to fit the hardware for me.

I would have thought Neil (UK NEIL) could sort you out. If you want his number just pm me.

Apologies if you have already considered this but I bought a rifle cheek pad for my Ultra - I didn't want to have the stock altered and it was a simple solution.

There are several types available, the one I bought was without any cartridge holders and you can change the height with various inserts.

As I said just a thought.
Why be awkward, when with a bit of effort you can be really impossible!

Hi Midasi 1

I've thought about all the options for raising the cheek piece including the type you mention, I've even tried most of them out.

But I've always came back to favour this style
