cast off adjustment mechanism. (The cheekpiece comes set from the
factory with cast in the center position.)
2. Loosen both the comb adjustment stud screws located in the top of
the stock adjustment studs using the larger (3mm) Allen wrench that
is provided (Figure 23, page 35). It only takes a fractional ¼ turn to
loosen them adequately.
3. Slide each stud equally in the desired direction. Each mark
indicates
1
⁄ 16".
4. Move the studs to the right for cast off (Figure 24, page 35).
5. Move the studs to the left for cast on (Figure 25, page 35).
6. Right-handed shooters may desire some cast off, with left-handed
shooters preferring some cast on. The terminology is the same
for right- or left-handed shooters. The net effect is to move the
cheekpiece to allow the face to move farther over the stock for
better eye-to-rib alignment.
7. When properly set, the front and rear sight beads should line up
perfectly each time you shoulder your shotgun.
8. Tighten the stock adjustment screws. Be careful not to over tighten.
20. STOCK ADJUSTMENT
BEFORE PERFORMING STOCK ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES,
PLACE THE “SAFETY” IN THE ON SAFE POSITION. OPEN
THE ACTION AND MAKE CERTAIN YOUR SHOTGUN IS
COMPLETELY UNLOADED. KEEP THE MUZZLES POINTED IN
A SAFE DIRECTION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE WARNINGS
COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
The SC 1 is fitted with an adjustable stock that allows you to make
adjustments to the stock for cast and drop. This feature is usually found
on target models where shooters benefit from highly customized settings.
20.1. ADJUSTING CAST ON AND CAST OFF
Adjusting cast on and cast off allows you to achieve a perfect fit from the
stock to your face. This is a most crucial adjustment, as it determines how
correctly and consistently your eye will line up with the sight plane along
the barrel rib. A shotgun correctly adjusted for cast on and cast off will
have you looking directly down the center of the rib with the front and
middle beads in alignment.
1. Using a 3mm Allen wrench, loosen the two comb retaining screws on
the right side of the removable cheekpiece and remove the cheekpiece
by lifting upward (Figure 22, page 34). This exposes the cast on and
