One more to add to the list that I recently bought and tried.

I also like the Blackhawk riser.  Be forwarned the knockoffs only have one large piece of foam instead of three smaller ones.

The hardest distance to shoot is the six inches between your ears.  It gets easier when you get out of your own way.  Self doubt and negative self talk have no place on the firing line. 
Once a shot is gone... good or bad, it is gone.   Focus on the next one. Make forty good first shots.

I have one on each of my 22lrs and on my mini14. They work well and are easy to adjust, both vertically and front/back.

Ordered one of these for my Savage Mark II. I like that it's "adjustable" but becomes permanent and solid once you find the correct height.

(It's always the equipment's fault... :P)

I've got one of these on my 10/22 with the standard sport stock and one on my Garand.

They come with three different size hard foam inserts and I found the smallest was perfect for the 10/22 with a scope and the garand with a scope (I've got a scout scope on an ultimak rail on the garand.)  Also, for those of you with a penchant for pool noodles, one peice of pool noodle re-adjusts the cheek rest for iron sights on both rifles for me... its a 2 second swap for the riser in the cheek rest.  You can mix and match the inserts/pool noodles to get the exact height you need.  They also can be purchased in a left-handed version for anyone that shoots lefty.

I use https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00162JKH0/?coliid=I1B7SUC1FOKWSN&colid=FZTCQKPBOE3T&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

It works great and allows me to keep small little items like bore snake, small bottle of lube, multi tool as well as preventing dragging wood.

all that cloth stuff is not solid or consistent enough. neither are those swimming pipes - plush they squish over time
u want dead solid consistent cheek raiser, and u want it adjustable

I have to agree with Redfeather and other similar posts.

The hangup for some folks is that they don't want to drill holes in their stocks. My $0.02: A rifle is a tool, nothing wrong with modifying it to better serve the purpose for which its owner acquired it.

I have one of these and am pleased.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…"

I just designed and printed a custom cheek riser for a Ruger 10/22 with synthetic stock. Designed the profile with an on-line CAD software called OnShape and then printed it with my 3D printer.
