Stock modifications

[danang]

I have read a discussion here-abouts by a gentleman who has right eye problems and modifies his stocks so that he can view the scope though his left eye while shooting right handed. Anyone know him and how I could contact him? I need some pics and descriptions of the modifications. Thanks.

Sorry I don't know the chap but I have built about 4 in my lifetime. The rest were due to the master eye. Maybe I'll be able to answer some of the questions for you. At least I'll try

Thanks...questions: Do you have to offset the stock, or will just lowering the comb take care of the situation? The gentleman in question indicated that he just laid his cheek farther down. This will be for a bench shooter...not to be used for a jumping deer type of rifle. What are your thoughts? Thanks for the replies.

R. W. Hart & Son sells an offset scope mount for this purpose. For bench shooting it works great.

Great idea...forgot about those animals. I'll check there.
