I would like to find a "quality" riser of non Chinese make. Thinking leather, maybe with ability to put different pad height inserts in. Might need a 1 inch lift for the 1200 yd plate.
Checked around and did not find what I thought I needed in the "looks" dept. that would be worthy of putting on a nice Ballard. Anyone know of a source?

Re: Comb riser source
I've always thought that the "strap-on" risers were unsightly and awkward to use. Finally built an adjustable riser copied after an old British long-range rifle. It has a thin metal plate shaped to the stock comb and covered with leather. The shaft penetrates thru the stock and adjusts with a small knob on the bottom of the stock. Easily gives 2+ inches of elevation, is rigid, comfortable, and easy to adjust. When in the "down" position, it is only obvious by the thin leather pad on the comb and the small knob under the stock. Delrin wiping-rod easily clears the stem of the cheek-rest.

Don't see myself drilling extra holes in my Shiloh buttocks for gamer doodads rg. That accu riser looks right smart to me for LR work. But to each his own. Bobw

Do the cheek-n-stock or look into an Alex Henry and get the best.

We use Tourbon . Good leather and different heights to suit you and your rifle.
There are those that talk, and those that act. Make a choice.

Re: Comb riser source
I like the ones David Barnes makes. Especially as I won one of them at the TX State Match one year, so the price was right. Believe Shiloh once sold them, but it may have been BACo. If you order directly from David he will put your initials or whatever on them. Hell, he'll even put someone else's on one for you.

Re: Comb riser source
I have used the Cheek-N-Stock with decent results, but the Accu-Riser is much more flexible on adjustable heights, plus it will not move. Nothing worse than a sliding cheek rest that changes your sight position................

Re: Comb riser source
I have two accu-risers - they don't move and are easy to adjust. Well - actually I have one. The other one is my wife's. I bought the second one when she wouldn't let me use hers.
