I read about the stock after I bought the gun. I reworked it so the barrel floats now. I sighted it in on sand bags. I figured that would be equal to the sticks i'll use hunting.
One thing I don't like is the stock is too low for a scope. I'm thinking of buying something to raise the comb.
I didn't mess with the thumbhole stock, because it appears to be for right hand shooters, and i'm a lefty.

There is a quick easy way is a lift pad like this...
Instaed of buying them I now make them out of a heavy piece of leather and then put bubble wrap underneat to adjust the height.

I'm not really left handed. When I lost the sight in my right eye I had to learn to shoot left handed. It doesn't feel natural at all, but what can I do? So many years of shooting right handed. Left handed will never feel as good.
That pad you make is what i'm going to buy. I've found a few that look pretty good.
I'm still waiting for my special permit from the DOW to use a scope for ML season. I don't want to spend any more money until I get it. I might have to go back to open sights, and then the stock will be fine as is.
