I've tried a couple of the lace on and velcro tactical style stock packs and found them to be not very stable, not very comfortable, and kind of klunky.
I made a Karstens style adjustable comb riser from a piece of Kydex and it is definitely a much better cheekpiece all the way around. It was a fun project because I enjoy tinkering. Lots of online "how to" articles and videos to check out and see what works. Kydex is cheap, easily available and really easy to work with. Just measure everything 3 or 4 times and cut once. The hardest part was gritting my teeth and getting over the emotion of drilling a couple of holes in my stock. (Getting harder to find unmolested flatback DBM stocks reasonably) In the end I'm really glad I did and wound up with the solid, repeatable cheek weld I was looking for. Now I can shoulder the rifle with my eyes closed, open my eyes and I'm looking right down the center of the scope. I'm definitely going to make myself a couple of more with the leftover material.
