Title: Cheek riser
Post by: VT_hunter on March 31, 2024, 12:07:13 PM
Hi all, looking for advice for a cheek riser for a Remington 870 20 gauge. I put a reflex sight on it but between the mount and sight, I feel like I'm peeking a lot. Also I shoot left handed so I need that as well. Don't need shell holders or anything special. Thank in advance for your suggestion.

I use a Beartooth 2.0. Helps with recoil too.

Beartooth Comb Raising kit---X2.  Plenty on E-bay or through Beartooth.  It raises the comb with multiple foam pads for adjustment and helps with cheek slap.

I built my own. I used foam pipe insulation and wrapped it with "Vet Wrap". You can get the wrap in a variety of colors at your local farm supply store. A roll of it costs about $10.

Did this with my 835 and Velcro'd to the stock. Worked wonderful.

Same for me with the DIY route.  I took a piece of clear 1.5" diameter tubing 3" in length, cut in half long ways, doubled them up and taped them to my stock and that gave me.the elevation I needed. I then took a thin foam koozy and cut a piece to cover the tubing , and taped it all over w camo tape.
