Hey guys,
I have a Savage 110 as you can see from my sig line. I like it a lot and it's darn accurate as long as I do what I'm supposed to. There are a couple more things I want to do to it though.
1. Some form of cheek rest. I shoot prone and benchrest, and with the stock I have it's kind of uncomfortable to get a good cheek/stock weld. I also shoot 3 position air rifle and the Anschutz rifle I use for that has a great, comfortable cheek rest. I've seen one version that you can stap on, and other versions that require drilling through the stock. I'd rather not have to do that, but I guess it'd be ok if it was really worth it. I need a rest that makes it easy to get a good consistent stock weld, especially for long range since my scope does not have parallax adjustment. What are some options for a good, comfortable cheek rest?
2. Something to use for a palm swell. Again, I'm pretty used to the Anschutz rifle where everything is adjustable and very ergonomic, so I want to make my Savage just as comfortable to shoot. I've seen the one on midway which looks like it would work. Nothing says I have to buy it either. If there's a good way to do something like this with common household items that would be great.
Any other ideas? I'm not looking to spend a whole lot of money, just to customize the rifle to me so that it's ergonomic and easy to shoot.
