I am 6'3" with rather long arms, and I cannot seem to get my standard McMillan A3 to feel as comfortable as my AICS stocked rifle. I am not expert, but I feel like the length of pull needs to be lengthened somewhat. What are my options for adjusting the stock length?

Thanks,
Josh
 
Re: Adjusting LOP

Go to Brownells and get some stock spacers that grind to fit. They come in a few different widths. Get the right lop set up, take off the pad, scribe the spacers, grind the spacers to fit your stock and your all set.
 
Re: Adjusting LOP

I had the same problem with my A-5. I called McMillan about getting one of their LOP kits. The woman I spoke to was incredibly nice and sent them to me here in Sacramento for free. I am afraid I dont remember her name though. Good Luck
