Little things can make a big difference

The height of the 34mm Element Titan scope on this FX Impact M3 was a bit too tall for my Czech/German bred cheek bones.

The Saber Tactical cheek riser fixed my cheek weld and alignment with ease.

 

[Deerstalker]

I added a check pad to my HW95L to align the scope with my check weld.

They don't need to be fancy they just need to be there so you can plant your face on the gun and look through the scope in a comfortable manor.

Interesting. I seem to require lower scope heights my great grandmother was 100% Czech.

I have very high cheek bones. If you need lower scope height then you've probably got them too! 34mm adjustable rings are scarce, so instead of using lower rings, I use the cheek riser to raise my line of sight.

Bwahahah! Whatever works right?!

I'm sure I do. 

I'm pretty sure I've seen a picture of a Classic Leshiy you owned with a Dedal Stalker. Did you have any trouble with the height of that? I find it much too high. I've thought about putting some sort of riser below a paracord wrap but am curious if you tried anything?

And while I'm thinking about it, are you a descendant of the Texas Machu family? My great grandmother was a Machu who immigrated to Texas in the 1920's.

Poor cheek weld for me on Leshiy Classic. I fabricated this one with a small block of wood beneath the neoprene pad.

No relation that I know of. I wasn't born in TX.

I had to raise the Saber Tactical cheek riser up from flush when installing the Titan and Eagle Vision rings myself. I think (from memory) my scope height is now 3.5". I May have to look into the new flush mount rails I have seen somewhere for the Impact.

 

[Peashooter]

I have already contemplated something in this regard, even if i dont have my guy yet or know how it will fit me and my scope.

But the Maverick i am waiting for dont look overly comfortable in this area, so during all the countless hours i spend in bed every night trying to fall asleep, my brain storm this maybe not even there problem and many many other things.

 

[JungleShooter]

I thought so, too... — "adjustable scope rings in 34mm are SCARCE"....



And when I assembled a Scope Mounting Table, I found no less than 7 (seven) different adjustable models for 34mm tubes.

Find attached the Scope Mounting Table for 30mm, but the table indicates which brands have 34mm models.

JungleShooter, thank you for another excellent table. I had not seen this one yet. These have got to represent a lot of work, and I have found all of your tables useful when it came time to make purchases. Terrific contribution to the sport!

 

[ram2jeep]

I was able to purchase FX 34 mm rings last night from AGD; not everyone's favorite place but they had them in stock.

 

[JungleShooter]

Glad to help, Schnauzershine! 

I have been helped by so many people on the AGN and GTA forums! What a great community!!

I’m reviving this thread in hopes that it may help others;
Recently I bough the cheek riser for my Uragan 2 (same story as OP’s; bad combination with my Slavic cheeks and 34mm rings ).
It was a long shot but it worked out really good for me, so:

0.25” cheek riser for AK Zhukov S style stocks from Magpul.
I can place it anywhere along the upper plastic cover on the stock, but if it’s on the way to the magazine- it has to be adjusted with a dremel.
IMHO it looks nice and it holds stiff. And it is cheep

EDIT: I’m using it with Vector Optics X-Accu Adjustable Elevation Scope Mounts 32-38mm

In 3 Position and 4 Position Precision shooting, shooters tend to change one or more of the following for each position:

1. Cheek riser height
2. Height and cant of sights
3. Butt hook geometry and alignment.

The "natural" alignment of eye and cheek to scope or sights is different in each position.

I used a few layers of foam packing sheets and a ACE bandage , if it is not quite right you can rewrap the bandage tighter or loser till it fits . (and they come in a few colors ) soft car wash sponge can be cut .

I've got all the cheek weld needed.

Great execution!! ️


Do tell: That scope also looks very nice.

I did make the stock. It's for FT using a tx200. The scope is a Sightron SVIII. It's 5-40x56, 40mm erector tube. At 40x it will focus to 9yds. At 5x it will focus down to 6 feet. FFP
