2.1 Adjusting Drop at Comb
Adjusting the comb allows you to align your eye perfectly with the scope or sights you may install on the rifle. A
properly adjusted comb will provide increased accuracy and shooter comfort. To adjust the drop at the comb:
1. Loosen the cheekpiece locking screws on the right side
of the stock using the supplied 3mm hex wrench. The
cheekpiece will now move freely up and down on the
stock adjustment studs. It is not necessary to remove
these screws.
2. Position the cheekpiece on the studs at the desired
height for the drop you want to apply. When you
have determined a possible setting, lightly tighten the
cheekpiece locking screws.
3. Ensure the rifle is completely unloaded, on “safe”
and pointed in a safe direction. Then, with an
installed sight or scope, shoulder the rifle to test the
setting. Your eye should quickly and easily align with
the sights or scope with little effort. Drop adjustments
are a matter of trial and error. Adjust a little at a time
until you have obtained the desired comb height.
4. Once you have obtained your desired drop at comb,
measure the gap between the cheekpiece and the
stock and record this distance. Loosen the cheekpiece
locking screws and remove the cheek piece by pulling it
straight up and off the buttstock.
5. Locate the steel inserts the stock adjustment studs fit into.
Each one of these inserts has a stop screw that can be
used to record the proper height of your comb. Use a
small flat screwdriver to back out each of these two stop
screws to the distance you measured in step 4. This will
record the height of the comb when the cheek piece is
installed.
