How does one determine best LOP for shooting off a bench? I recognize how important it is to fit the rifle well to ensure good shooter performance, so want to ensure LOP is correct. I have seen this.

That approach yields 14.75" to 15.0" for me, a long ways from the usual 13.5" or so many stocks I have. I am 6' 1" and sleeve length is 34 - 35, if that helps.
This video below, at the 0:50 mark talks about LOP as well.
I tried this, but it seems to be set up for shooting from standing. I did not have anyone with me to aid, so results on this were inconclusive.
I do recognize that extending the LOP will force my head back, and the scope along with it, so watching to make sure the scope can move as needed for a good sight picture.
I can get a new stock that works for me, and have the LOP modified for a very nominal cost... Far, far less than an adjustable LOP mechanism.
Thanks.
