Re: To scope or not to scope?

The one thing nobody ever talks about with quick detach scope mounts is stock design.

If the stock is set up for a scope, then the rifle hammers the crap out of you cheek bone (especially with the hard kickers).

If it is set up for irons, your head is waving in the breeze and you are susceptible to being drilled by the scope.

One alternative is to build the stock for a scope with slightly more drop in the butt than usual, and install tall sights.
