I would specifically like to build, if necessary, a Cometa Fenix 400 USC Premier Star gas ram. It has an adjustable cheek piece and I will midgetize it in LOP. 12.5"! And yes, it will be 25 and 20, one each.

The one issue I see with that is that the stock will likely appear somewhat odd after you shorten it as the cheekpiece will remain proportionate to a full sized stock. I built a modified 2260 for my wife years ago and she's about 4'10", (4'11" if you ask). What I did on that rifle was I cut the butt short with a miter saw and then cut out a crescent for the cheekpiece with a bandsaw and made my own risers using brass rods. It came out looking mostly good, but you could still see that the proportions were a little off. In that case the pistol grip appeared to be swept too far to the rear in relation to the rest of the stock.

Sawney I agree but a bit of wood can be removed from the cheekpeice if needed. That said pretty is as pretty does. If it fits and drills cans, targets, and squirrels it won't matter to me if others think it is a bit off. My wife accuses me of being more than just a bit off and she has lived with me for over 50 years! Be Well Brothers, dito. Oh, have I mentioned I like squirrels. IN MY BELLY. DEATH TO SQUIRRELS!
